Immunodiagnostic tools for taeniasis
Acta Tropica, 2003Most diagnostic work conducted on the Taenia species zoonoses has been carried out on the larval stage of Taenia solium in man, reflecting the relative severity of the pathology caused by this stage of that organism. This review will, however, concentrate on the immunodiagnosis of the adult intestinal stages of these parasites in humans. Diagnosis of T.

Parasitology Today, 1988
Toeniids are large tapeworms, common throughout the world. Two species, Taenia saginata and T. solium are common parasites of man. The adult worms parasitize the small intestine, while immature stages (metacestodes or cysticerci) develop mainly in cattle in the case of T. saginata or pigs in the case of T. solium. Cysticerci of T.

Taeniasis and cysticercosis are diseases caused by the adult and larval stages of the cestode or tapeworm parasites Taenia saginata and Taenia solium in their definitive host (humans) and intermediate hosts (cattle, pigs, humans). Both species are meat borne parasites that localize as adults in the intestines of the human host.

Cestodes, or tapeworms, vary greatly in size and behavior but have similar morphology consisting of a head, called a scolex, a neck, and a worm body, called a strobila, which is formed by body segments called proglottids. T. saginata, T. solium, and T. asiatica. The life cycles of these Taenia species are similar.

The majority of cases of Taenia, both taeniasis and cysticercosis, seen in the USA and Canada are imported. However, local transmission has been reported. There are three Taenia species known to parasitize humans—T. solium, T. saginata, and T. asiatica.

Granulomatous Gastritis Due to Taeniasis
Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 1998Taeniasis is very common all over the world and invades the upper small bowel in humans. It is very unusual to see this parasite in the stomach. We report a case of gastric taeniasis that led to granulomatous gastritis. The elimination of the parasite resulted in complete disappearance of the granulomas in the corpus and antrum and in complete recovery

Ultrasonographic appearance of colon taeniasis. [PDF]
Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2001 We present the case of a 50‐year‐old woman with abdominal pain, nausea, loss of appetite, and frequent stools in whom the routine ultrasonographic examination demonstrated a double‐reflective, ribbon‐like structure in the lumen of the initial segment of the ascending colon, which suggested colon taeniasis.

Taeniasis-cysticercosis in Honduras
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1991Data on human taeniasis and human and animal cysticercosis from Honduras were gathered from laboratory, medical and slaughterhouse records, proglottid identification and surveys. The infection rate for human taeniasis was 2.7/1000 individuals at the University Hospital, 10/1000 in the southern provinces of Choluteca and Valle, and 0.6/1000 in Cortes ...

Taeniasis and Cysticercosis (Taenia saginata)
1972Publisher Summary This chapter summarizes all significant matters concerning Taenia saginata (T. saginata) taeniasis and cysticercosis—that is, nomenclature, host relationships, structure and biology, clinical and therapeutic features, epidemiology and epizootiology, and prevention of infection. It considers some taxonomic problems and the hosts of T.

Diagnosis of Taeniasis and Cysticercosis
2013Despite the fact that human taeniasis and cysticercosis have a well-known etiologic agent, diagnosis of these conditions may be a challenge. In the case of taeniasis, most infected individuals are asymptomatic or may develop vague complaints and, as previously described, defining a typical syndrome of cysticercosis is not possible.
