Resumo: The Authors report an uncommon case of leishmaniasis with disseminated cutaneous lesions, systemic manifestations and ocular involvement, the latter being characterized by bilateral nongranulomatous iridocyclitis. The severity of the oph-thalmologic lesions and its unresponsiveness to therapy (in spite of satisfactory regression of both systemic and cutaneous manifestations) lead to a needle aspiration of the anterior eye chamber, content. From this material Leishmania sp was isolated. To our knowledge this is the first time that Leishmania has been shown into the ocular globe.

Os autores descrevem um caso raro de leishmaniose com lesões cutâneas disseminadas, manifestações sistêmicas e comprometimento ocular, sendo este caracterizado por iridociclite bilateral não granulomatosa. A gravidade do quadro oftalmológico e a ausência de resposta ao tratamento, a despeito da melhora das manifestações cutâneas e sistêmicas, levaram à realização de punção propedêutica da câmara anterior ocular. A partir do humor aquoso isolou-se Leishmania sp. Os autores desconhecem na literatura qualquer outro caso onde tal achado tenha sido demonstrado. Universidade de São Paulo.
