Description

Leishmaniasis associated with human immunodeficiency virus disease associated with malaria is a complex condition where leishmaniasis occurs in patients who are also infected with HIV and have a history of malaria. This co-infection can complicate treatment and management due to the interplay of these infectious diseases. Understanding the implications of each disease is crucial for effective patient care.

Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that this term may be encountered in discussions about co-infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. It is important to maintain a formal register and avoid colloquial terms. Common variants may include 'leishmaniasis en pacientes con VIH' or 'leishmaniasis en malaria', but it is recommended to stick to the glossary term in formal contexts.
