Presentation Transcript

  1. Trematodes

  2. Schistosomiasis • Caused by blood flukes • Most common • S. haematobium • Africa and Middle East • S. japonicum • Far east Asia • S. mansoni • South America, Caribbean and Africa

  3. Schistosomiasis

  4. S. mansoni and S. japonicum • Can be asymptomatic • Acute disease • Skin • Dermatitis at site of cercaria entry • GI tract • Abdominal pain, diarrhea, ascites • Hepatosplenomegaly • Enlarged liver and spleen • Brain • Ectopoic eggs can cause lesions

  5. S. haematobium • Infects urinary tract • Cystitis, ureteritis, hematuria • Bladder cancer • Leading cause in affected areas

  6. Schistosoma Eggs • S. mansoni S. japonicum S. haematobium

  7. Schistosoma mansoni

  8. Schistosoma mansoni

  9. Clonorchiasis • Clonorchis sinensis • Asia including Korea, China, Taiwan and Vietnam • Inflammation and obstruction of biliary ducts • Chronic infections can cause cancer of the biliary ducts

  10. Clonorchiasis

  11. Clonorchis eggs

  12. Clonorchis sinensis

  13. Clonorchis sinensis

  14. Key for Images • Key • AC=acetabulum (ventral sucker) • IN=intestine • CE=cecum • OS=oral sucker • CL=collar • OV=ovary • CS=cirrus sac • PH=pharynx • EB=excretory bladder • SR=seminal receptacle • EG=eggs (within uterus) • TE=testes • ES=esophagus • UT=uterus • GA=genitoacetabulum • VT=vitellaria

  15. Fascioliasis • Fasciola hepatica (sheep liver fluke) • Worldwide • Fasciola gigantica • Asia, Africa, Hawaii • Inflammation and obstruction of biliary ducts • Abdominal pain, fever vomiting and diarrhea • Hepatomegaly (enlarged liver)

  16. Fascioliasis

  17. Fasciola hepatica Egg

  18. Fasciola hepatica

  19. Fasciola hepatica

  20. Key for Images • Key • AC=acetabulum (ventral sucker) • IN=intestine • CE=cecum • OS=oral sucker • CL=collar • OV=ovary • CS=cirrus sac • PH=pharynx • EB=excretory bladder • SR=seminal receptacle • EG=eggs (within uterus) • TE=testes • ES=esophagus • UT=uterus • GA=genitoacetabulum • VT=vitellaria

  21. Fasciolopsiasis • Fasciolopsis buski • Light infections are asymptomatic • Heavy infections • Diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever and ascites • Intestinal obstruction can occur • Eggs indistinguishable from Fasciola hepatica

  22. Fasciolopsis and Fasciola Eggs Fasciolopsis Fasciola

  23. Fasciolopsis buski

  24. Fasciolopsiasis

  25. Dicrocoeliasis • Dicrocoelium dendricitum • Most common in grazing ruminants • Rare in humans, carnivores and other herbivores • Worldwide distribution • Metacercariae in ants cause change in behavior

  26. Dichrocoeliasis
