Leishmaniasis is a chronic inammatory disease caused by obligate intracellular kinetoplast containing parasite of the genus Leishmania. Leishmaniasis produces varied group of clinical syndromes ranging from self-healing cutaneous ulceration to fatal visceral disease. In India it is endemic in Bihar, Sub-Himalayan regions and other north Indian states.
