Co-occurrence of mucosal leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania infantum and mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma

First-line immunohistochemical analysis was performed by using antibodies directed against CD3, CD20, and Bcl-2. Real-time PCR tests, targeting the kinetoplast minicircle gene, successfully detected Leishmania spp. To overcome the low serology's sensitivity in immunocompromised patients, PCR te...

Description
Summary:First-line immunohistochemical analysis was performed by using antibodies directed against CD3, CD20, and Bcl-2. Real-time PCR tests, targeting the kinetoplast minicircle gene, successfully detected Leishmania spp. To overcome the low serology's sensitivity in immunocompromised patients, PCR tests on blood sample might be considered for leishmaniasis screening.
