Can anyone suggest treatment for cutaneous leishmaniasis, probably acquired
in Central or South America, that is causing swelling along lymphatic
vessels (query, pian bois caused by L. guyanensis?). The patient is 8
months pregnant. Can anyone advise on the dangers of  leishmaniasis and its
treatment during pregnancy. Speedy replies would be greatly apprecieated.
