[Determination of Antimony Resistance Mechanism of Leishmania tropica Causing Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in Turkey].

In conclusion, it was revealed that L.tropica strains in our country may gain resistance to meglumine antimoniate in a short time. It is foreseen that if the patients living in our country or entering the country are treated inadequately and incompletely, there may be new, resistant leishmaniasis foci that may increase the number of resistant strains and cases rapidly.
