FORERO, Mario et al. Nasolaryngotracheal mucosal leishmaniasis in an adolescent. Arch. argent. pediatr. [online]. 2014, vol.112, n.3, pp.e101-e104. ISSN 0325-0075.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5546/aap.2014.e101.

Leishmaniasis is a growing public health problem and it produces a great social impact. Laryngeal leishmaniasis without obvious gateway is rare; especially in immunocompetent patients. We report a case of laryngeal leishmaniasis with tracheal involvement and stenosis on a previously healthy teenager without environmental or personal risk factors.
