Leishmaniasis are parasitic diseases caused by protozoan flagellates of the genus Leishmania, parasites infecting numerous mammal species, including human. Baghdad city regarded as endemic area for cutaneous leishmanisis,so an expermental study was done in Baghdad city , the sample taken from the patients cutaneous leishmaniasis attending dermatologic clinic in Baghdad Teaching Hospital and Al Yarmouk Teaching Hospital during the period from first of October 2017 to the first of February 2018.Ninety blood samples were collected from infected and suspected people with cutaneous leishmaniasis , which were confirmed by laboratory tests because they were all infected by amastigote form of cutaneous leishmaisis, as well as the data clarified there are a shared rate among people with cutaneous leishmaniasis and visceral leishmaniasis represented by L.donovani was( 10,11.1%) ,while L.infuntum was(40, 44.4%).
