Abstract

Visceral leishmaniasis during pregnancy is rare both worldwide and in Armenia, and it deserves special attention due to little information available about the features of this infection during gestation as well as the real possibility of vertical transmission of the disease. According to the data obtained from the international literature, the prognosis of visceral leishmaniasis in combination with pregnancy is unfavorable. We describe a clinical case of visceral leishmaniasis associated with pregnancy, which, despite its severe course, ended with complete recovery of the mother and the fetus.
