| leishmania infantum | A parasitic haemoflagellate of the subgenus leishmania leishmania that infects man and animals and causes visceral leishmaniasis (leishmaniasis, visceral). Human infections are confined almost entirely to children. This parasite is commonly seen in dogs, other canidae, and porcupines with humans considered only an accidental host. Transmission is by phlebotomus sandflies. (12 Dec 1998) |

| Leishmania donovani infantum | A strain or subspecies of Leishmania donovani that causes visceral leishmaniasis in young children in Mediterranean countries; the reservoir is the domestic dog. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cholera infantum | Old term for a disease of infants, characterised by vomiting, profuse watery diarrhoea, fever, prostration, and collapse. (05 Mar 2000) |
| roseola infantum | The full name for Roseola. (12 Dec 1998) |
| dermatitis exfoliativa infantum | Dermatitis exfoliativa neonatorum, a generalised pyoderma accompanied by exfoliative dermatitis, with constitutional symptoms, affecting young infants, which may result from atopic dermatitis, Leiner's disease or staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome. Synonym: impetigo neonatorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dermatitis gangrenosa infantum | A bullous or pustular eruption, of uncertain origin, followed by necrotic ulcers or extensive gangrene in children under 2 years of age; if untreated, death may result from haematogenous infection, such as liver abscess. Synonym: disseminated cutaneous gangrene, ecthyma gangrenosum, pemphigus gangrenosus, rupia escharotica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| osteopathia haemorrhagica infantum | infantile scurvy |
| lichen infantum | An eruption of papules and vesicles at the orifices of sweat glands, accompanied by redness and inflammatory reaction of the skin. Synonym: heat rash, lichen infantum, lichen strophulosus, prickly heat, strophulus, summer rash, tropical lichen, lichen tropicus, wildfire rash. (05 Mar 2000) |
| leishmania | A genus of parasitic flagellated protozoans which causes diseases in animals including humans, most notably leishmaniasis. A type of trypanosome. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Leishmania aethiopica | An African species of Leishmania responsible for human cutaneous leishmaniasis in Ethiopia, with a reservoir of human infection in the rock hyraxes, Procavia capensis and Heterohyrax brucei, and in Kenya, with reservoirs in the tree hyrax, Dendrohyrax arboreus, and the giant rat, Cricetomys gambianus; vectors are the sandflies Phlebotomus longpipes and P. Pedifer. It causes a cutaneous leishmaniasis of three types: classical oriental sore, mucocutaneous leishmaniasis, and diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis; ulceration is late or absent and healing takes one to three years. (05 Mar 2000) |
| leishmania braziliensis | A parasitic haemoflagellate of the subgenus leishmania viannia that infects man and animals. It causes cutaneous (leishmaniasis, cutaneous), diffuse cutaneous (leishmaniasis, diffuse cutaneous), and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis (leishmaniasis, mucocutaneous) depending on the subspecies of this organism. The sandfly, lutzomyia, is the vector. The leishmania braziliensis complex includes the subspecies braziliensis and peruviana. Uta, a form of cutaneous leishmaniasis in the new world, is caused by the subspecies peruviana. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Leishmania braziliensis braziliensis | The type subspecies of Leishmania braziliensis and the agent of mucocutaneous leishmaniasis. A natural reservoir of infection remains unknown, but the proven vector in Brazil is Lutzomyia (Psychodopygus) wellcomei; other sandflies may also transmit the infection. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Leishmania braziliensis guyanensis | A subspecies within the Leishmania braziliensis complex from Brazil and Guyana, and the cause of the cutaneous leishmaniasis condition locally known as "pian bois"; the reservoir host in Brazil is the sloth Choloepus hoffmani and the vector is the sandfly Lutzomyia umbratilis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Leishmania braziliensis panamensis | A subspecies of Leishmania braziliensis found in Panama, Colombia, and neighboring regions; it causes ulcerating lesions of cutaneous leishmaniasis which do not heal spontaneously and often involve nearby lymphatic tissues, but nasopharyngeal involvement is rare. The sloth Choloepus hoffmani is the reservoir in Panama and Costa Rica; the sandfly Lutzomyia trapidoi has been proven to be a vector. (05 Mar 2000) |
| leishmania donovani | A parasitic haemoflagellate of the subgenus leishmania leishmania that infects man and animals and causes visceral leishmaniasis (leishmaniasis, visceral). The sandfly genera phlebotomus and lutzomyia are the vectors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Leishmania donovani archibaldi | The type subspecies and agent of visceral leishmaniasis in Asia, Africa, and the Indian subcontinent; a few cases occur in the south central section of the area known as the former USSR, and in Iran, Iraq, and possibly Yemen; the dog and jackal are animal reservoirs. The form in Africa may be this subspecies, though the name Leishmania donovani archibaldi is also used. (05 Mar 2000) |
