Interactive atlas of leishmaniasis in the Americas: Clinical aspects and differential diagnosis. Updated version

This publication is the result of a joint work of PAHO, experts on this subject, and other collaborators, with support from the Federico Lleras Acosta University Hospital Dermatology Center of Colombia and the health ministries of the countries of the Region. This work aims to provide health professionals with the possibility of searching and interactively analyzing 1029 photographs and illustrations of leishmaniasis and the 55 main diseases that are considered for the differential diagnosis. We believe the material will be valuable for all students and professionals at all levels of health care, including those in other continents, when treating patients infected in the Americas. In this second edition, epidemiological data and treatment recommendations have been updated, in line with the Guidelines for the treatment of leishmaniasis in the Region of the Americas, published in 2022.
