Ref.: Leprosy and
leishmaniasis
From: Bryceson A., London, UK
Dear
Salvatore,
I
refer to Dr Villarreal’s messages.
It is an interesting case. Ross
Barnetson and I published eight cases of leprosy plus
leishmaniasis from Ethiopia in 1978, so the coincidence might not be
so rare in Bolivia, despite the lack of reported cases.

R Soc Trop Med Hyg. 1978;72:160-163.
Best
wishes
