The partnerships among health institutions must be strengthened in order to develop and implement community engagement strategies for the prevention and disease control. Notwithstanding having new insights into the biology and epidemiology of this entity and getting effectively alter the natural history of the disease, it has not been completely eradicated due to multiple reasons, such as drug resistance, the association with HIV AIDS, and migration of people (displaced people), which gives a challenge to achieve the objectives set by public health programs worldwide. The aim of this paper is to obtain a broad view of the disease, from its first appearances up to the present; by reviewing some aspects of the pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment of it. Methodology: Some researches were performed in databases and search engines from the period 1978 to 2014. 128 articles were selected for this.
