- W2068068215 abstract "I read the article by Sarman Singh with interest. The author has described an interesting case of mucosal leishmaniasis in an HIV-infected patient. The patient was diagnosed with mucosal disease in June 2003. His CD4 T-lymphocyte count was 34 cells/µL. Since he was treated for kala-azar in September 2002 the time interval— about 10 months—would be far too short to explain his low CD4 count as a result of HIV infection acquired from multiple unsafe injections of sodium antimony gluconate used during treatment. Even in individuals with rapidly progressive HIV infection studies carried out in India have shown an annual decline in CD4 count of 120 cells/µL per year from a median count of 644 cells/µL following acute primary HIV infection. The low CD4 count at presentation could have been due to visceral leishmaniasis in the recent past. However this scenario is unlikely as the patient was adequately treated for the visceral disease at a time when—according to the author—he was either HIV seronegative or had recently acquired HIV infection during the course of treatment. Cozon and colleagues have indeed reported a rare case of visceral leishmaniasis in an HIV-seronegative individual with a CD4 count of 53 cells/µL at presentation but the count increased to 122 cells/µL within 2 months of commencing therapy.
