HOMEM COMO RESERVATORIO DA LEISHMANIOSE TEGUMENTAR

[Marise Mattos]

Dear Dr. Gilberto Martins Borges Filho,

Some years ago we have worked with Dr. Elizabeth Rangel who tried to feed
phlebotomines on recent lesions of L.braziliensis infected patients.
Although we did not succeed it doesn't mean that man can not be a reservoir.
I think that it is to be proved on L.braziliensis infeccion.

Marise
