What is Visceral Leishmiasis about?

Leishmania is an intracellular parasite transmitted primarily by sandflies, with two morphological forms: amastigote and promastigote. Visceral leishmaniasis, also known as Kala Azar, presents with symptoms such as fever, hepatosplenomegaly, and anemia, and can be diagnosed through clinical and laboratory methods. Treatment includes pentavalent antimony compounds, symptomatic care, and prevention strategies like controlling sandfly populations and treating infected individuals.
