Drugs, crime, and HIV.

Visceral leishmaniasis has been reported as a complication in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who live in areas where leishmaniasis is endemic or in patients who have traveled to these areas. Kaposi's sarcoma has been found frequently in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). We report a HIV-infected patient having visceral leishmaniasis associated with Kaposi's sarcoma in which a biopsy specimen obtained from a pigmented cutaneous lesion revealed the coexistence of a Kaposi's sarcoma pattern with Leishmania parasitic colonization.
