摘要
The paper reports a case of a 6-year-old boy affected by visceral leishmaniasis. In addition to clinical and anamnestic findings, diagnosis was made on the basis of the rapid increase in the titer of anti-Leishmania antibodies (16-fold), while the marrow smear was negative. A complete recovery was obtained using antimonial drugs.
