ABSTRACT
While cutaneous leishmaniasis [CL] is a protozoal parasite of the skin, basal cell carcinoma [BCC] is a malignant tumour of the skin. In this paper, we report the identification of cutaneous leishmaniasis and basal cell carcinoma in one patient, in the same site and same lesion. This raised the possibility that CL. is a predisposing factor for BCC
