ABSTRACT
Leishmaniasis, though widely prevalent in South Asia, is not seen in the Kashmir valley where the cold climatic conditions create a hostile environment for the growth of the parasite or its vector, the sandfly. However, a few cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis have been documented from the hot and arid Uri belt of Kashmir. We present a case of visceral leishmaniasis in a boy hailing from Uri, a rarity in this region.
