摘要

In a retrospective study patients with mucosal leishmaniasis were paired (as regards age sex and occupation) with patients with active cutaneous disease. No signijicant racial dijference could be detected. In the same way the Montenegro cutaneous reaction was not different in 96pairs ofpatients studied as regards different racial groupings. A larger indurated area was observed in patients with mucosal leishmaniasis compared with the cutaneous form.
