Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease with notable worldwide burden and increasing prevalence in the United States due to globalization. We describe 2 cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis in New England, United States, both caused by the New World subgenus Viannia, in adults returning from Central America. Both patients underutilized preventive measures against bites from phlebotomine sand flies while abroad. They were successfully treated with oral miltefosine, which was well tolerated. Avoidance of vector transmission is the most important preventive measure. Prompt identification and treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by species with potential for mucocutaneous spread are key to limiting morbidity and mortality. This responsibility should be shared among medical specialties, including dermatologists. Partnering with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is critical for timely diagnosis and thus treatment. Miltefosine should be considered a first-line agent for cutaneous leishmaniasis given its efficacy, tolerability, availability, and ease of administration. Ondansetron can be prescribed concurrently.
