Abstract :
Lupoid leishmaniasis, a clinical form of cutaneous leishmaniasis, was described by Christopherson in 1923. It is a chronic condition that typically follows acute cutaneous leishmaniasis infection. In this clinical form, 1 to 2 years after healing of the acute lesion, new papules and nodules appear at the margin of the remaining scar.
