-causes acute, chronic diarrhea

-related to strongyloides fuelleborni(African primates)

-difficult to diagnose; excretion is intermittent

-considered as STH
-can be parasitic or free living

!!!! lumbricoides is facultative ADULT FORM* always look at tail.

Pointed; female – curved; male
-strongyloides; can produce new generation; infection may last 30
yrs.

-parthenogenic females; egg can develop into an embryo without being

fertilized by sperm

WHAT STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT IN SPEACAL SMEAR SUSPECTED IN STRONGYLOIDES:

RHABITIFORM LARVAE
PARASITIC FEMALE:
Relatively small IF NOT PARTHENOGENIC; IT NEEDS MALE TO FORM EGG

Long slender esophagus; anterior part

Straited cuticle
4 indistinct lips
>parthenogenic
>paired uteri (rhabditiform);can be observed in feces
HOOKWORMS ano meron??? Diko narinig
tanong

??????????????????????????????????????????????
?

HOOKWORM IS OPPOSITE*
 1.”adult” parasitic female for 28 days ; small intestine(habitat) ; always female is someone is
infected

-- female is parthenogenetic
2.Diagnostic stage : rhabditiform larvae in feces
3. if favorable soil.
3.a sometimes; filariform larvae immediately develop inside perianal.
3a1: filariform penetrate intestinal wall or perianal skin

Retroinfection the migration of newly hatched larvae from the anal skin back into the
rectum, may occur but the frequency with which this happens is unknown
and autoinfection
inside the body
NON FEEDING; Usually the infective stage
3a2: enters pulmonary migration ;;; Ascaris or hookworm is same cycle

3b; rhabitiform in soil;

3b1: rhabitiform larvae in soil
3b2;skin penetration
3b3 lung migration
>>larvae swallowed
Then adult para again and goes on and on and on

!!!filariform is the infective stage ; it is non feeding; so it become parasitic; so it will penetrate
the skin to survive!!!!!

Erythema: reddening of area where filariform penetrates

Pruritus: itchiness
Papules: like blisters with hookworm inside
They always pass through in the lungs: thus, lobar pneumonia, hemorrhage and etc.

If hookworm; super really pointed

This are artifacts only daw Becomes chronic because of retroinfection

PLUS ONE :p Areas environment sanitation: Proper disposal of waste

EDEMA, MACIATION: PAPAYAT???

EOSINOPHILA; INCREASE OF NO OF EOSINOPHIL

IF STRONGYLOIDIASIS; HAVE FORKED TAIL

HK IS HOOK WORM NOT HONGKONG!!!

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO TREAT: ALWAYS USE THE DRUG!!

>>wear footwear (slippers), wash hands :>>>
