Abstract

The co-existence of active VL and PKDL can make diagnosis difficult, potentially leading to misdiagnosis and treatment, particularly in immunocompromised patients. The simultaneous occurrence of VL and PKDL-like skin lesions requires heightened clinical suspicion, especially in endemic regions. Delayed or misdiagnosed cases may lead to significant morbidity. Further research is needed to understand the pathophysiology, immune response, and optimal treatment strategies for para-KDL in HIV-infected individuals.
