Leishmaniasis is a widespread tropical infectious disease. It is endemic to Asia, Africa, and worldwide. The current study aims to follow up immune changes and hematological parameter that cutaneous leishmaniasis in children with accompany infection. 70 samples were collected from children with cutaneous leishmaniasis who arrived at Diwaniyah Teaching Hospital.
