Human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by L. infantum and cutaneous (CL) tropica have been reported in Turkey. is also responsible for canine (CanL) it widely common the country. The main aim of present study was to design a real-time PCR method based on internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) region diagnosis all clinical forms Mediterranean, identify species directly from samples. Totally, 315 specimens, human/canine (blood, bone marrow, lymph node) (lesion aspiration) samples, 51 Turkish...
A total of 1,030 patients, 40.2% men and 59.8% women, identified during the period October 1998 to November 2002 as having cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL), were studied; 1,431 lesions in patients. One lesion was present 80.7% The size (longest axis) 13.6 mm (standard, 12.1 mm; range 3-150 mm). Most papular type (51.2%), although several atypical clinical presentations CL observed. duration disease ranged between 1 72 mo (mean duration, 10.8 mo). suspicion confirmed by observation amastigotes on...
Abstract Objective To report isolation of Leishmania major strains obtained from 18 Turkish autochthonous cutaneous leishmaniasis ( CL ) patients infected with L. between 2011 and 2014. Methods Initial diagnosis relied on microscopy culture in enriched medium, prepared by adding specific amounts liver extract, protein lipid sources to NNN medium. Promastigotes were then transferred RPMI medium including 10% foetal calf serum for mass culture. Species‐specific real‐time PCR targeting ITS 1...
The study presents two imported malaria cases with a history of travel to malaria-endemic areas and replied late response treatment.In the blood preparations first case, dot-shaped nucleus structures were identified in erythrocytes, which looked different from classical erythrocytic forms.In SD-Pf/Pan test, bands obtained for both P.f Pan; while SD-Pf/Pv band was P.f.The P. falciparum 18S rRNA gene detected using real-time polymerase chain reaction.Artemether-lumefantrine treatment protocol...
Human leishmaniasis, both visceral and cutaneous, canine leishmaniasis have been reported in Turkey for centuries. However, the advent of new diagnostic tools during last 30 years has led to recognition that is an important public health problem throughout country. In most disease foci human leishmaniases exist together identification parasite species causing these diseases a pre-requisite understanding epidemiology. A total 109 samples obtained from cases were examined using internal...
ABSTRACT. Leishman ia isolates from 57 cases of human cutaneous (CL), visceral (VL), and canine (CVL) leishmaniasis in Turkey were grouped by multi‐site DNA polymorphism analyses into five genotypes. The initial grouping was based on heterogeneity the faster‐evolving mitochondrion (kinetoplast) minicircles intergenic regions two nuclear repetitive genes. Taxonomic affiliation phylogenetic relationships genotypes inferred comparing them with reference species for sequence a ∼1.4 kb conserved...

Abstract Background Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) has long been reported in the Cukurova region. We have compared sensitivity of conventional methods diagnosis by microscopy and cultivation lesion aspirates against polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification parasite‐specific DNA from these samples. Methods The samples ( n = 25) were obtained patients clinically diagnosed with CL at regional dermatology clinic. Aliquots stained Giemsa for cultured Novy‐Nicolle‐McNeal (NNN) blood agar...
Dermanyssus gallinae is a blood parasite of wild birds, but it also pest in the poultry industry. It occasionally bites mammals and thus rarely creates skin problems such as itching, papules, vesicles, dermatitis. A 92-year-old man presented with severe itch on his head, particularly at night. He had been misdiagnosed senile pruritus treated antihistamines topical corticosteroids temporary relief symptoms. On basis clinical parasitological findings, D. dermatitis was diagnosed....

Leishmaniasis recidiva cutis (LRC) is an unusual form of acute cutaneous leishmaniasis. Herein, we present a case LRC the lips mimicking granulomatous cheilitis. An 8-year-old, Syrian child admitted with swelling and disfigurement his for 4 years. Abundant intra extracellular Leishmania amastigotes were determined in smear prepared from lesion Giemsa stain. Histopathology showed foamy histiocytes leishmania parasites within cytoplasm macrophages epidermis dense dermal mixed type inflammatory...
Aim: The possible association between certain childhood infections and the propensity to develop nocturnal enuresis may include intestinal helminth infections. Objective: To explore Enterobius vermicularis among children 4 7 years of age in a Turkish orphanage. Methods: Eighty (45 boy, 35 girl, range 4-7 years) participated this study. enuressis was investigated after mebendazole therapy with infection. occurrence examined by adhesive cellotape anal swap method. Results: perianal tape tests...
Objective:The aim of this study was to retrospectively determine the prevalence intestinal parasites in patients, whose examination material
Objective: Cases with imported malaria have increased complication and mortality rates because of delayed diagnosis treatment in non-endemic countries.This study aimed to investigate the incidence clinical features our clinic during past 10 years.Methods: This retrospective included 75 cases diagnosed as having between January 2008 December 2017.The epidemiological data, laboratory findings, data course were obtained from system records.Results: Patients predominantly male (%98.6) a median...
Background: Clinically, cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) can be confused with granulomatous diseases and skin cancers, it may lead to erroneous diagnosis treatment. Diagnosis based histopathology have some difficulties due low number of parasites, especially in chronic CL cases. We aimed emphasize the necessity considering differential for cases basal cell carcinoma, particularly areas where is endemic. Methods: One hundred seven paraffin-embedded tissue biopsy specimens were selected from...
