Diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis results from anergy to leishmania infection which allows infection to spread widely over the skin surface. It manifests as progressively spreading painless nodular infiltration of the skin by either L. aethiopica or L. amazonensis. In contrast to disseminated cutaneous leishmaniasis, the leishmanin test is negative, nodules contain abundant parasites and response to therapy poor.
