Abstract
The resistance of T. gambiense to pentavalent arsenicals, especially to tryparsamide, is not due only to the action of subcurative doses; it can exist as a natural characteristic of certain strains. This resistance is often difficult to create in the laboratory and the routine treatment given to patients does not inevitably increase it in the case of a relapse.Keywords
