A slight decrease of autochthonous cases was observed during the survey period, from 0.48 cases\/100,000 inhabitants per year in 1999 (highest value) to 0.1 cases\/100,000 inhabitants per year in 2017 (lowest value). Conversely, imported cases increased over time (from 59.7 in the 2000s to 94.5 in the 2010s). In French Guiana, 4126 cutaneous and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis cases were reported from 2003 to 2020. The mean incidence was 103.3 cases per 100,000 inhabitants\/year but varied in function of the year (from 198 in 2004 to 54 in 2006).
