- W4283711210 abstract "Protozoa of the genus Leishmania are obligate intracellular parasites, and Leishmania species cause a spectrum of species-specific clinical symptoms known as cutaneous, mucocutaneous, and visceral leishmaniasis. For example, Leishmania major and Leishmania tropica cause cutaneous leishmaniasis, while Leishmania infantum and Leishmania donovani cause visceral leishmaniasis (VL). However, molecular studies in recent years have shown that Leishmania species cause different clinical symptoms.Our aim was to evaluate the relationship between the clinical and molecular characterization of leishmania isolates in children with VL defined in Turkey, an intercontinental transitional region.The clinical diagnosis of VL was confirmed by detecting amastigotes in the bone marrow aspirate and/or the rK39 test and/or molecular methods (genus-specific PCR, Real-Time PCR, ITS1 PCR-RFLP, DNA sequencing).Most of the VL patients were referred from the districts of Adana (53.3%) and others from neighboring provinces; Hatay (16.6%), Osmaniye (3%), Gaziantep (3%), Adıyaman (3%), and 20% case were Syrian immigrants A clinical diagnosis of VL was confirmed in 30 patients with different diagnostic methods. 93% was found positive with microscopic examination, 79.1% with rK39 dipstick test, and 60% with genus-specific PCR assay in clinical samples. The Leishmania isolates were identified as L. infantum (40%), L. donovani (26.7%), and L. tropica (23.3%) using Real-Time PCR, ITS1 PCR-RFLP, and DNA sequencing. There was no cutaneous finding in any case in clinical examination.The most common clinical findings were fever (93.3%) and splenomegaly (90%), followed by hepatomegaly (76.6%). The most common laboratory finding was thrombocytopenia (86.6%), followed by anemia (70%). In addition, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis was detected in bone marrow aspiration in two of our patients. Since pentavalent antimony salts treatment initially failed in four patients, it was necessary to switch to Liposomal-Amphotericin B with treatment success.The presence of L. tropica in VL patients, despite the absence of cutaneous findings in any of the cases, shows that this strain can cause VL, contrary to conventional knowledge. In the Adana province, where this study was carried out, L. infantum from CL cases in previous studies should be taken into account, and visceral spread in CL cases and accompanying cutaneous lesions in VL cases should be investigated in detail." @default.
