Abstract

Pentavalent antimonial compounds, the mainstay in the treatment of the various forms of leishmaniasis, have considerable toxicity, are difficult to administer and expensive. We describe a safe and efficient therapeutic modality using a spring-loaded and air-powered device for the intralesional injection of a high-velocity meglumine antimoniate microspray in a patient with cutaneous leishmaniasis.
