dc.description.abstractLeishmania infantum is the zoonotic agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL). The epidemiological cycle in Brazil has dispersed from the Northeast to other regions of the country. Hypotheses regarding possible entries of Leishmania (L.) infantum into the area of the triple border are presented and discussed. The State of Parana´ borders the states of São Paulo and Mato Grosso, which have experienced VL epidemics over the past 20 years. The study used genetic markers to understand the dispersion of Leishmania infantum throughout central-southern Brazil. Results show two possible agent inputs in the Parana´ state, one coming from Paraguay, the other from Santa Catarina state.en
