Résumé :	[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS H6lR0x4c. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The case of authoctonous isolated laryngeal leishmaniasis due to Leishmania infantum in an Italian immunocompetent host is reported. It is highlighed the need to consider mucosal leishmaniasis in the differential diagnosis of laryngeal tumors. Rapid nested-PCR technique and enzyme restriction analysis were useful for diagnosis and species identification directly from bioptic samples.
