Abstract
The first description of leishmaniasis in Latin America was made by Migone in 1913 and in Colombia in 1944 by Augusto Gast-Galvis. So far, it has been registered in 88 countries around the world, where around 12 million cases occur annually and there are approximately 350 million people at risk of contracting the disease. In the last five years, around 6,500 new cases have been reported in Colombia. The historical account of the case of a 27-year-old woman with the diagnosis of centrofacial vegetative leishmaniasis, treated in 1935 with tele-therapy at the National Institute of Radium, is performed.
