ABSTRACT
Eleven cases of imported cutaneous leishmaniasis are described based on clinical features such as sex, age, occupation, country visited prior to consultation, sites and numbers of lesions, duration of illness, treatment and outcomes. Ketoconazole was shown to be effective against imported cutaneous leishmaniasis. With the increasing numbers of cutaneous leishmaniasis due to exchange workers going to the endemic areas and the presence of vectors in some localities in Thailand, primary transmission of the disease in this country is possible if feeding habits of the vectors change.
