摘要

本文报告首例输入性皮肤利什曼病病例，患者为一名从沙特阿拉伯返回马来西亚的10岁儿童。他到马来西亚旅行六周后，右脸颊和下巴出现两个红斑性皮肤结节。采用苏木精和伊红染色对皮肤活检检查，观察利什曼原虫细胞内无马鞭毛体的发生。此外，对利什曼原虫核糖体内转录间隔区1 (ITS1)的分子分析证实该儿童感染了热带利什曼原虫。该儿童口服氟康唑，在返回沙特阿拉伯之前恢复了80%。

Imported case ofLeishmania tropica cutaneous leishmaniasis in a 10-year-old child in Malaysia.

The present paper reported a first imported case of cutaneous leishmaniasis in a 10-year- old child who returned from Saudi Arabia to Malaysia. Six weeks after his travel to Malaysia, two erythematous dermal nodules were developed over his right cheek and chin. Occurrence of intracellular amastigote of Leishmania was observed through examination of skin biopsy with hematoxylin and eosin stain. Furthermore, molecular analysis of ribosomal internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) of Leishmania spp. confirmed the child was infected with Leishmania tropica. The child was given oral fluconazole and he had a 80% recovery before he went back to Saudi Arabia.
