Resumen

Leishmaniasis is a parasitic, emergent and uncontrolled disease due to the change in the epidemiological profile for the appearance of new outbreaks and urbanization of the transmission cycle. A case of a 15-years-old ado-lescent, who is resident of the Community Dos Ríos located on the Taisha Canton, was described. The patient presented ulcerated lesions, confir-ming the diagnosis of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis through the histological study of the lesions, and starting intramuscular treatment with pentavalent antimony salts observing healing with a progressive and gradual resolution of the lesions and emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis, supervi-sed treatment, and monitoring to prevent complications.
