ABSTRACT
Cutaneous leishmaniasis (lc) is a variety of leishmaniasis caused
by different species of hemoflagellate intracellular protozoa of
the genus Leishmania. The states of the Mexican southeast are
the most affected by this disease. We report a male, 16 yearold,
peasant, indigenous Tzeltal, native of Chiapas, Mexico. It is
attended for presenting a nodular lesion on the nose, 4 cm in
diameter, with edema and erythema, with well delimited borders
and ulceration. This is a case is of atypical clinical presentation
and looks like lymphocytoma vs. lymphoma.
