Özet
Manisa'nın Turgutlu ilçesinden gelen 37 yaşındaki bir bayan hastaya visseral leishmaniasis tanısı konulmuştur. Hastada flow sitometri ile yapılan testler sonucunda immunsupresyon saptanmamıştır. Hasta, gün aşırı 50 mg olmak üzere toplam 20 doz kullanılan Fungizon. verilerek başarı ile tedavi edilmiş ve herhangi bir yan etki gözlenmemiştir. Ülkemizde visseral leishmaniasisin önemi ve erişkinlerde nadir olarak görülmesi nedeniyle olgu sunumu olarak sunulması düşünülmüştür.
