We describe a patient with HIV who presented with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and nonspecific abdominal imaging findings. He was diagnosed with visceral leishmaniasis via bone marrow biopsy and treated in the hospital with amphotericin B infusions. Despite pharmacologic interventions, including amphotericin and miltefosine in addition to antiretroviral therapy, our patient experienced multiple relapses and a challenging clinical course.
