Article Synopsis
- Leishmania is widespread, affecting almost half the globe, and its diagnosis remains particularly difficult in low- to middle-income countries.
- On average, it takes 4.5 years from the onset of symptoms to get a diagnosis, indicating significant delays.
- While traditional microscopic detection methods often miss diagnoses, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is highly effective; however, the varying clinical presentations complicate matters, especially in areas where the disease is not common.
