Introduction to Medical Helminthology
Medical helminthology : the study of parasitic worms (helminthes/ vermes/cacing) affecting man, which : Spend part or the entire life cycle in a human host or Animal parasite causing disease in human
3
CLASSIFICATION HELMINTHES NEMATHELMINTHES PLATYHELMINTHES NEMATODES
TREMATODES CESTODES
4
General characteristics of Nematodes
The species parasitic in man range in length from 2 mm (Strongyloides stercoralis) to over a meter (Dracunculus medinensis) The adult is an elongate cylindrical worm, bilaterally symmetrical like a thread; also known as roundworm Unsegmented Body covered by fine and smooth cuticle, sometimes striated Has inner body cavity (pseudocoelom)
5
Nematodes Life cycle Transmission to a new host :
Ingestion the mature infectious egg or larva Penetration of the skin or mucous membranes by the larva Some species have an intermediate host – usually an arthropod The same animal both the definitive and intermediate host of Trichinella spiralis Nematodes, do not multiply in man
6
Nematodes Pathogenicity
The effect of parasitic nematodes upon the host depends upon : species, the intensity of the infection and the location of the parasite Simultaneous infection with several species of intestinal nematodes is common in tropical and subtropical countries Injury may be produced by adult and larval parasites Intestinal parasites produce less local and systemic effect than tissue parasites
7
Nematodes Pathogenicity
The local reaction from intestinal parasites result from irritation, invasion of the intestinal wall and occasionally penertation to extraneous site The local reaction in the liver, lungs (and other) – may destroy or encapsulate the larvae The degree of local reaction – depend upon the sensitivity of the host to the proteic product of the parasite Intestinal mucosa is damaged by biting and bloodsucking, by lytic ferment secreted by the parasite and by mechanical irritation
8
Pathogenicity The general reaction are produced by loss of blood, absorption of toxin, nervous reflexes and proteic sensitization The larvae of certain species, produce local and general reaction In unatural host the larvae may be pass through their invasive stages, never become established as adult parasite – paratenic host Immunity is acquired through the invasion of the tissues by the parasite and its larvae or through the absorption of its products Immunity is both humoral and cellular

Autoinfection is prevented by means of : Avoid constipation Anal hygiene
45
NON-SOIL TRANSMITTED HELMINTHS
= Members of intestinal nematode that have transmissions are not via soil. = It happens because egg or larva of non-soil transmitted helminths don’t do maturation process (to become infectious) in the soil.
46
NON-SOIL TRANSMITTED HELMINTHS
1. Enterobius vermicularis 2. Trichinella spiralis
47
Enterobius vermicularis
A. MORPHOLOGY > Enterobius vermicularis = Oxyuris vermicularis = pinworm. > In its life, this worm (ovipar) develops from: egg larva worm. > Its egg is oval, assymetry, that contains embrio. > This worm has lateral ala cephalic in anterior tip. > One female worm can produce eggs in one day. > The female worm will die after producing eggs. > The male worm will die after copulation.
48
B. LIFE CYCLE of Enterobius vermicularis
Female & male worms do copulation in cecum & around (appendix, ascending colon & ileum) Pregnant female worms migrate at night & produce eggs in anus & around (anal area) After several hours, eggs become mature & infectious, then come to host, via: air (person inhalates) food (person eats food with infectious hand after scartching anal area) Eggs crack in duodenum & larvas appear Larvas become mature (be worm) in ileum
49
Enterobius vermicularis
C. SPREADING > Cosmopolite (spread around the world), especially in children. D. PATHOLOGY & CLINIC > The worm causes disease, called enterobiasis. > This disease has clinical symptoms: - Ithcing in anal area (pruritus ani) at night. - In girl, this disease can make inflammation in fallopian tube (salpingitis). - Intestine is seldom disturbed, etc.
50
Enterobius vermicularis
E. DIAGNOSIS > Scotch adhesive tape swab method, is done before taking a bath or defecating. F. TREATMENT > Mebendazole, thiabendazole, etc. G. PREVENTION > Washing hand before eating > Cutting long fingernail, etc.
51
Trichinella spiralis A. MORPHOLOGY
> Trichinella spiralis = porkworm. > In its life, this worn (vivipar) develops from larva worm. > Its larva can become cyst (circular larva which is covered by hyaline capsule). > This worm has stylet mouth to invade intestine or muscle tissue. > One female worm can produce about larvas. > The male worm will die after copulation.
52
B. LIFE CYCLE of Trichinella spiralis
Female & male worms do copulation in mouse/pig/person duodenum to cecum Pregnant female worms enter to intestinal villi and then lymphatic sinus Pregnant female worms bear larvas in lymphatic sinus Larva is brought by lymphatic flow, to thorachic duct, right heart, lung, left heart, and then to around body Host (person/pig/etc) can die Larva enter to mouse/pig/person muscle tissue & make cysts (larva can live until 30 years in muscle) Health person eats meat (pig muscle) before cooked perfectly Cyst wall rupture & larva release & larva become mature (be worm) in health person duodenum The worm can also pass placenta & mammary
53
Trichinella spiralis C. SPREADING
> Cosmopolite (spread around the world). D. PATHOLOGY & CLINIC > The worm causes disease, called trichinosis. > There are 3 clinical stadium: - Intestinal invasion that is done by worm (1-2 days after eating infectious muscle). - Larva migration (7-28 days after eating infectious muscle). It results cerebral disturbing, cardiac distrubing, fever, even die. -Forming cyst & healing process (90 days after eating infectious muscle).

96
Blood Trematoda (Schistosoma sp.)
97
There are four species of schistosome which are infective to humans:
Schistosoma mansoni, found in Africa, Brazil, Venezuela, Suriname , Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic. Freshwater snails of the Biomphalaria genus are an important host for this trematode.
98
S. japonicum whose common name is simply blood fluke is found widely spread in Eastern Asia and the southwestern Pacific region. In Taiwan this species only affects animals, not humans. Freshwater snails of the Oncomelania genus are an important host for S. japonicum.
99
S. mekongi is related to S
S. mekongi is related to S. japonicum and affects both superior and inferior mesenteric veins. S. mekongi differs in that it has smaller eggs, a different intermediate host, and longer prepatent period in the mammalian host.
100
S. haematobium, commonly referred to as the bladder fluke, originally found in Africa, the Near East, and the Mediterranean basin, was introduced into India during World War II. Freshwater snails of the Bulinus genus are an important host for this parasite
101
Schistosoma mansoni causes intestinal schistosomiasis
Schistosoma haematobium causes urinary schistosomiasis Schistosoma japonicum and Schistosoma mekongi cause Asian intestinal schistosomiasis
102
HABITAT S. Haematobium Venous vessel (Vv) of urinary bladder, colon; Hepar S. Japonicum Vv. of intestine; Hepar S. Mekongi Vv. of intestine; Hepar S. Mansoni Vv. of Colon, Rectum; Hepar
103
Group of age hit by between 5-50 year. Mass treatment every 6 month.
EPIDEMIOLOGY Disease of schistomiasis or bilharzasis in Indonesia only schistomiasis japonica found in middle sulawesi, relate to agriculture getting water from irrigation. Group of age hit by between 5-50 year. Mass treatment every 6 month.
104
S. japonicum The S. japonicum worms are yellow or yellow-brown. The males of this species are slightly larger than the other Schistosomes and they measure ~ 1.2cm by 0.5 mm. The females measure 2cm by 0.4 mm. The adult worms are longer and narrower than the related S. mansoni worms.
105
S. japonicum This Parasite at human being cause oriental of schistosomiasis, schistosomiasis japonica, katayama fever or Snail Fever disease
106
Katayama Fever Acute schistosomiasis (Katayama's fever) may occur weeks after the initial infection, especially by S. mansoni and S. japonicum. Manifestations include: Abdominal pain Cough Diarrhea Eosinophilia Fever Fatigue Hepatosplenomegaly
107
Faeces with egg of s. JAponicum have contact with water
Those egg will hatch and release free-swimming larva called Miracidia Miracidia will infect Oncomelaria hupensis by penetrating their skin Inside the snail they will undergo asexual reproduction, and will become sporocysts Further reproduction will produce large number of Cercaria, which is free-swimming larva Cercaria can infect us by penetrating our skin After penetration, they will loose their tail and become Schistosomule Enter circulation, and end at the mesenteric veins There, they will undergo sexual reproduction and produce egg Egg will penetrate the tissue and are passed with the faeces
108
S. mansoni The male S. mansoni is approximately 1 cm long (0.6 to 1.4 cm) and is 0.11 cm wide. It is white and it has a funnel-shaped oral sucker at its anterior end The female has a cilindric body, longer and thinner than the male (1.2 to 1.6 cm long by cm wide). The female parasite is darker and it looks gray. The darker color is due to the presence of a pigment (hemozoin) in its digestive tube
109
CLINICAL SYMPTOM AND PATHOLOGY
Similar with S. japonicum, but it is lighter
110
MORPHOLOGY AND LIFE CYCLE
Adult Worm of fairish male about 1,3 cm and female about 2,0 cm. its life in small vena flank. Egg found in urine, and rectum genitals
112
Pathology It can break the wall of the urinary bladder
The most characteristic symptom is haematuria. Dysuria also can occur. Inflammatory reaction to eggs in the bladder wall and later fibrosis and calcification often leads to mucosal hyperplasia and papilloma formation In Egypt vesical schistosomiasis has been considered a common cause of malignancy of the bladder in male agricultural workers
113
Lab Diagnosis Microscopic identification of eggs in stool or urine is the most practical method for diagnosis Stool examination should be performed when infection with S. mansoni or S. japonicum is suspected, and urine examination should be performed if S. haematobium is suspected. Dark urine is a significant clinical sign of urinary schistosomiasis Tissue biopsy (rectal biopsy for all species and biopsy of the bladder for S. haematobium) may demonstrate eggs when stool or urine examinations are negative. The eggs of S. haematobium are ellipsoidal with a terminal spine, S. mansoni eggs are also ellipsoidal but with a lateral spine, S. japonicum eggs are spheroidal with a small knob.
114
Treatment Schistosomiasis is readily treated using a single oral dose of the drug Praziquantel
115
Prevention The main focus of prevention is eliminating the water-borne snails which are natural reservoirs for the disease. This is usually done by identifying bodies of water, such as lakes, ponds, etc., which are infested, forbidding or warning against swimming and adding niclosamide, acrolein, copper sulfate, etc., to the water in order to kill the snails. Individuals can guard against schistosomiasis infection by avoiding bodies of water known or likely to harbor the carrier snails

122
Fasciola hepatica Epidemiology Is the first trematode found
Causes fasciolatic hepatic Is cosmopolite mainly in country with large farm (mostly sheep), infection in human often happens in Cuba, France, England, and Aljazair.
123
Habitat and host Habitat is mainly in billiary duct, may penetrate hepatic tissue causing abses. Definitive hosts are human, sheep and other cattle. Intermediate host I is family Lymnaeidae, especially genus Lymnaea. Intermediate host II is water plants especially Nasturtium officinale.
124
Morphology Big size, 30 x 13 mm Integuments is scaly
Posterior end without thorn Unique shape, like shoulder because it has kerucut kepala Batil isap kepala (1 mm) and stomach are almost same in size and adjacent
125
Caecum is hyper branching until posterior end
Hyper branching testis is lied between 2/4 – ¾ posterior body, one is behind the other Ovary branches, anterior to testis and smaller Uterus is short, curved, located between ootype and porus genital. Egg is x µ in size and has operculum. Immature eggs are lied in billiary duct and exit with feces.
126
Life cycle Eggs are expelled within feces Metacercariae penetrate
Hepatic tissues are infiltrated with eggs, immature eggs are lied in billiary duct Eggs are expelled within feces Eggs mature in water and hatch after 9-15 days at optimum temperature C Penetrate Glisson’s capsule, hepatic tissue, then into billiary duct in 12 weeks in adult Miracidia enter intermediate host I and develop to become sporocysts, rediae I, rediae II in 3 weeks , and cercariae Penetrate intestinal wall, Enter peritoneal cavity Cercariae move toward Intermediate host II Metacercariae exit the cyst in duodenum At night, in 8 hours, become metacercariae Metacercariae penetrate definitive hosts
127
Clinical Symptom Until metacercaria penetrate Glisson’s capsule, these is no complain. But trauma and necrotic lesion rise during migration through hepatic tissues. In heavy infection, epithelia is scraped and young worm will return to hepatic parenchyma, form abscess pouch, and hepatic tissues are infiltrated with eggs. When larvae migrates to peritoneal cavity, focus ectopic may happen in blood vessel, lungs, subcutaneous tissue, brain ventricles, and eyes where abscess will be formed. Symptoms : colic, ikterus obstructiva, cough and vomiting, abdomen rigidity, acute epigastria pain, leukocytosist and eosinophily until above 60%
128
Diagnosis Eggs are found in feces, duodenal fluid, or bile. Patient, who will be examined, do not eat liver. Need early diagnosis to prevent fatal liver damage. Serodiagnostic test is very helpful, although it is not an routine diagnostic tool.
129
Prevention Treating patient and cattle that act as reservoir.

Lung Trematode Paragonimus westermani Disease : Paragonimiasis ,
Pulmonary distomiasis
131
Paragonimus westermani
Epidemiology It is cosmopolite in human, mainly east in Japan, Philippine, Korea, China, Muangthai, Taiwan, Africa, etc. In Indonesia, it is autochthon infection in animal. In human, as import case.
132
Host Definitive hosts are human and mammalians such as dog and cat
Intermediate hosts I are Semisulcaspira libertina (Japan), Brotia asperata (Philipina), B. costula episcpalis (Malaysia), Syncera sp., and Melania. Intermediate hosts II are freshwater crabs genus Potamon, Eriocheir, Sesarma sp., and crayfish.
133
Life cycle Metacercariae penetrate definitive hosts
Sometimes, into ectopic place like mesentery, pleura or brain, and reach adulthood here From the pouch, eggs go out to bronchioles Then, they are coughed with sputum or swallowed and expelled with feces In 3-6 hours, enter abdominal cavity and penetrate abdominal wall, stay for several days before penetrating diaphragm, to pleural cavity and enter bronchioles Hatch in water after maturation (2-3 weeks) In intermediate hosts I, miracidia become Rediae I, Rediae II, and finally cercariae In duodenum, encystations happens, penetrate intestinal wall (in minutes) In intermediate hosts II, cercariae become metacercariae in 5 months Metacercariae penetrate definitive hosts
134
Clinical signs and pathology
Around parasite, leukocyte infiltration happens and is followed by forming fibrosis capsule and form cyst containing 2 worms, purulent blood, and eggs. Lungs : (1) nonsuppurative, (2) tubercle-like, (3) suppurative, (4) ulcerative. First fever, shaking chills, dry cough, then hemaptoe with sticky and rush-colored sputum mainly when wake up in the morning. Physical examination reveals a bronchopneumonia or bronchiectasi with pleural effusion.
135
Diagnosis Finding eggs in sputum, aspiration pleural fluid, and feces
Serology test with intradermal test, complement fixation test.
136
Treatment and Prevention
- Praziquantel PREVENTION Treating patients Cooking crab before being eaten
137
CESTODA
138
Scolex : organ of attachment,usually bearing suckers or hooks
Cestodes are members of phylum Platyhelminthes, also known as tapeworms. General morphology Scolex : organ of attachment,usually bearing suckers or hooks Neck : part which it grows Strobilla : the boby, consist of proglotids (segments)
139
Proglotids Immature :segment that is attached to the neck Mature : has a reproductive structure Gravid (pregnant): filled with eggs. Tegument: covers adult cestode, allows materials to enter and waste to be excreted from the body Hermaphrodite, each proglotid has a male and female reproductive structure. Mature embryo has six hooks and also known as onchosphere.
140
Diphyllobothrium latum
141
Morphology Is not yet found in Indonesia
Resides in ileum of human, dogs, and cats Morphology Adult worm 3 – 10m, can be as long as 60m, with proglotids. In the place of sucker or hooks, are two shallow sucking grooves called bothria. Operculated eggs
142
LIFE CYCLE Adult tapeworms resides in
ileum. Self fertilization will occur and eggs are produced Unembryonated eggs is release with feces. eggs will develop into onchosphere which contains a ciliated embryo. egg disintegrate releasing the ciliated embryo , coracidium, larva stage I. Coracidium is eaten by copepod, and inside it will develop to larva stage II called procercoid. If copepode is eaten by fish, procercoid will penetrate into fish’s muscle, and develop to larva stade III called plerocercoid/sparagnum. human will be infected by this larva. It will attach to mucous membrane of intestine and developes into adult tapeworms.
143
Pathogenesis Diagnosis Prevention Disease: diphyllobothriasis
Usually asymptomatic, can cause abdominal pain, weight loss, diarrhea, vomiting,deficiency of vit B12. Diagnosis Eggs or proglotids found in feces. Treatment Niclosamide, praziquantel, bithionol, atabrin Prevention Avoid ingestion of undercooked fish
144
Taenia Solium
145
Morphology Also called porkworm and resides in jejenum of human.
Larva is known as cycticercus celullosae 10 x 5 mm. usually inhabit the muscle. Morphology Adult worm is 2 – 4m Has a rostellum with two rows of hooks plus four suckers. Genital pores located lateral to proglotids. Eggs doesn’t have opperculum, but contains onchosphere.
146
L i f e cycle Eggs are digested out in the stomach of the pig.
Using its hook and lysis substrate, the oncosphere will then penetrate intestinal wall into blood stream and reside in muscle forming cysticercus celullose. Human will be infected by digestion of undercooked pork. The larva will attach inside the small intestine, and develop into adult tapeworms that can produce eggs. These eggs will then pass through feces
148
Diagnosis Treatment Pathogenesis Disease: cysticercosis
Most cases are asymptomatic. Diarrhea, abdominal pain may occur. If cysticercus migrate to brain, can cause neurocysticercosis. Headaches, seizures, even death can occur. Diagnosis Gravid proglotids or egg in feces, CT scan, MRI. Treatment Praziquantel and niclosamide, also surgical removal.
149
Taenia Saginata
150
Also known as beef worm. Larva is called cysticercus bovis, Morphology Adult beefworm is 5m,but can grow as far as 25m . Has four suckers, but no hooks.
151

Hymenolepsis diminuta
Habitat small intestine Definitive hosts rats, also common in humans Intermediate hosts grain beetle or flea Epidemiology cosmopolite, found in Indonesia
153
Hymenolepsis diminuta
Morphology Adult worms mm long, 3-5 mm wide, have proglotids. Rounded scolex bears a small rostellum with four suckers, proglotid 0,8 mm long and 2,5 mm wide. Eggs without the polar filaments, sized 60-80μm.
154
Life cycle
155
Hymenolepsis diminuta
Transmission Transmission or infection occurs by ingestion of infected beetles or other arthropods, usually in grains and cereals Pathogenesis Symptoms, if any, are mild, and usually include diarrhea, nausea, and slight abdominal pain Diagnosis Recovery of characteristic eggs in feces
156
Hymenolepsis diminuta
Treatment Niclosamide, Praziquantel Prevention Limit exposure of grains and cereals to rats and insects.
157
Dyphilidium caninum
158
Dyphilidium caninum Synonym Double-pore dog tapeworm Definitive hosts
Cats and dogs,,, also found in humans’ small intestine. Intermediate hosts Dog/cat flea; Ctenocephalides canis and C.felis.
159
Dyphilidium caninum Morphology
Adult tapeworm is 10 to 50 cm in length. Several rows of tiny hooklike spines are present on the cone-shaped rostellum. The uterus in the gravid proglottid contains numerous packets of eggs, each packet containing 5 to 20 eggs. Colorless eggs ~ 30-60μm in diameter, with a six hooked oncosphere present in each egg. The eggs are enclosed in membrane-bound packets.
160
Dyphilidium caninum Transmission
Infection after ingestion of cysticeroid larvae. Pathogenesis Most of infected individuals are asymptomatic, although some with a heavy worm burden may experience mild gastrointestinal symptoms, such as nausea, diarrhea, indigestion, and slight abdominal pain.
161
Human host Life cycle
163
Dyphilidium caninum Diagnosis
Recovery of characteristic gravid proglottids and egg packets (following rupture of proglottids) in human feces. Treatment Niclosamide, Praziquantel. Prevention Good veterinary care of cats and dogs, keeping animal freely from parasites. Good personal hygiene.
164
Hymenolopsis nana
165
Hymenolopsis nana Morphology:
smallest tapeworm, 25-40mm, found in mice and other rodents, doesn’t need intermediate host the scolex bears a short rostellum with one row of hooks, along with four suckers proglottids 2 mm wide and 1mm long Sac-like gravid uterus is usually full of eggs Egg: round to oval thin-shelled, micrometer, contains an inner envelope with two polar thickenings, each having four to eight filaments, which extend into the space within the shell
166
Hymenolopsis nana Transmission: Infection is usually transmitted by ingestion of infective eggs. Although most cases are asymptomatic, mild gastrointestinal symptoms, such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight may occur
167
Hymenolopsis nana Laboratory Diagnosis: recovery of characteristic eggs in human feces. Adult worms and proglottids are rarely seen in the stool
168
Hymenolopsis nana Treatment and Prevention: Praziquantel is the treatment of choice for infection with H. nana. Niclosamide is also effective. Good sanitary practices are essential in the prevention of infection
169
Echinococcus granulosus
170
Echinococcus granulosus
Morphology: hydatid tapeworm, 4 mm in length, scolex bearing four suckers, numerous hooks, and three proglottids Eggs: although not found, but it is identical to those of Taenia species
171
Echinococcus granulosus
Transmission and Pathogenesis Ingestion of eggs, usually by hand-to-mouth contact with infected dog feces. Symptoms vary, depending on the location of the cyst in tissue. Although cysts may form in many areas of the body, the lung and the liver are most commonly affected. Pulmonary symptoms, such as cough and chest pain, may develop with lung infection. One serious complication of hydatid cyst disease is the risk of anaphylactic shock, following rupture of the cyst.
172
Echinococcus granulosus
Laboratory Diagnosis: The eggs are not found in human feces. The diagnosis of hydatid cyst disease may be made by radiographic and serologic studies. A combination of assays, including enzyme immunoassay and immunoblot techniques, has been suggested ti diagnose hydatid cyst disease. The demonstration of hydatid sand is also diagnostic.
173
Echinococcus granulosus
Treatment and prevention Although surgical removal of hydatid cyst has long been considered the treatment of choice, several antihelminthic agents are now available. These include praziquantel and mebendazole. Infection is also prevented by good personal hygiene to prevent hand-to-mouth transmission of eggs from dogs to humans, avoidance of ingestion of sheep viscera by dogs, and antihelminthic treatment of dogs, as necessary
