متن کاملDetection of Leishmania DNA in paraffin embedded specimens of chronic lupoid leishmaniasis using polymerase chain reaction
Background: Chronic lupoid leishmaniasis (CLL) is a chronicform of cutaneous leishmaniasis that is usually resistant to antileishmania agents and leishmania is not seen in the histologicsections. We used polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detectleishmania DNA in CLL specimens.Method: This descriptive cross sectional study was done on20 paraffin embedded specimens of CLL cases referred to theder...
