Description

Kala Azar in South Asia: Current Status and Challenges Ahead provides a deep look into the evolving landscape of visceral leishmaniasis. Also known as Dum-dum fever, black fever, or Kala-azar, this disease is caused by parasitic protozoa of the Leishmania genus and spread by sand flies. Because the parasite infects internal organs and bone marrow, untreated cases almost always result in the death of the host. This book addresses the complex realities of managing the disease in developing countries. It examines the difficulties presented by asymptomatic cases, the impact of undernutrition, and the complications arising from Kala-azar/HIV co-infections. By bringing together world-renown experts, this text offers state-of-the-art reviews on the progress in diagnosis and the rapid evolution of therapeutic regimens. It serves as a vital resource for medical professionals and researchers working to understand and combat this life-threatening condition in South Asia.
