The child's mother and father, aged 22 and 27 years old, respectively, were both HIV positive. The child was admitted to the General Pediatric Center, in Belo Horizonte, presenting high fever, fatigue, weight loss and enlargement of liver and spleen. Indirect immunofluorescent test revealed a titer of 1:320 for Leishmania. Such result was confirmed by the presence of amastigotes in bone marrow aspirate samples and culture of promastigote forms. Parasites were identified as being Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis through PCR, using a L. braziliensis complex primer and a generic primer, followed by hibridization. Specific leishmaniasis therapy (Glucantime&lt;FONT FACE=Symbol&gt;\u00d2&lt;\/FONT&gt; antimonial) was intravenously administered.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s0036-46652002000300006","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,27]],"date-time":"2005-04-27T13:30:15Z","timestamp":1114608615000},"page":"145-149","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Visceral leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis in a patient infected with human immunodeficiency virus"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Eduardo S\u00e9rgio da","family":"SILVA","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Pesquisas Ren\u00e9 Rachou, Brasil; Universidade do Estado de Minas Gerais"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raquel Silva","family":"PACHECO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"IOC, Brasil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C\u00e9lia Maria Ferreira","family":"GONTIJO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Pesquisas Ren\u00e9 Rachou, Brasil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"In\u00e1cio Roberto","family":"CARVALHO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"FHEMIG, Brasil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Reginaldo Pe\u00e7anha","family":"BRAZIL","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Pesquisas Ren\u00e9 Rachou, Brasil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"530","reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"298","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.10.2.298","article-title":"Leishmania and human immunodeficiency virus coinfection: the first 10 years","volume":"10","author":"ALVAR J.","year":"1997","journal-title":"Clin.
