Leishmania

[aager at MEDNET.MED.MIAMI.EDU]

     With regards to leishmanial organisms, has anyone heard of any 
     congenital transmission of the visceral form in a rodent model? 
     We are aware of two publications with respect to human congenital 
     transmission; Lowe&Cooke 1929, and Jour.of Communicable Diseases 1987 
     June.      THANK YOU!
