ABSTRACT
Post kala-azar mucosal leishmaniasis (PKML) is relatively rare in the Indian subcontinent. We describe an ulcerative variant of PKML with nasal involvement in a Nepalese adult male. He had ulcerated plaque over the upper lip with extensive involvement of nasal columella and septum. He came from endemic area for kala-azar and had a previous history of kala-azar. There were plenty of LD bodies in microsections and FNA of submandibular lymph node.
