In Colombia L. panamensis and L. braziliensis are the most frequent species associated with cutaneous leishmaniasis [2] . The spectrum of New World cutaneous leishmaniasis includes single or multiple, localized, cutaneous ulcers;diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis; disseminated cutaneous leishmaniasis; and mucosal leishmaniasis [3] .
