description	We read with interest the paper of Laguna and colleagues concerning gastrointestinal leishmaniasis in patients infected with HIV. They described 5 cases of gastric and duodenal leishmaniasis and reviewed 15 more cases from the world literature, excluding 3 cases of esophageal leishmaniasis. We report one case of esophageal leishmaniasis in a patient with AIDS that presented as a solitary ulcer in which Leishmania amastigotes and cytomegalic cells were identified on histopathological examination, suggesting CMV infection.
