Hi,
He was tested for HIV?
In Bahia, when I was part of the DR Edgar Carvalho-s group, we treat a patient with DCL with Interferon gamma. He cured completely. Later, Dr Roque Almeida treated refractory patients with CL with multiple lesions, but not DCL with GM-CSF subcutaneous. These treatments were published.
I think in these cases immunotherapy works very well, but my guess is to try first IFN-gamma.
Best regards,
Amelia.
