ABSTRACT
A 40-year-old soldier in Guyana consulted at the end of December for skin lesions that had been developing for several weeks after he was lost overnight in the equatorial forest, near the village of Saul. He was bitten by numerous mosquitoes during the night and as he crossed marshy areas. When he arrived at the clinic he had 23 leishmaniasis sites visible.
