A 32-year-old homosexual with AIDS, who until 1985 was a frequent traveller to South America and mediterranean countries, had recurrent bouts of fever, splenomegaly, arthralgias as well as granulocytopenia and anaemia. Liver and bone-marrow punctures were performed to exclude malignant lymphoma and (or) a mycobacterial infection. Both biopsies revealed Leishmania donovani. During administration of sodium stibogluconate (Pentostam) the fever disappeared for a time and there was clinical improvement, but further treatment was limited because of thrombocytopenia. In patients with AIDS who have splenomegaly with nonspecific fever, visceral leishmaniasis must be considered in the differential diagnosis even outside of endemic regions.
