| Abstract (English): | Gnathostomiasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease due to some species of the Gnathostoma helminths - genus, it has a wide clinical presentation and its diagnosis is a challenge. Tropical and subtropical countries are endemic, and the transmission is related with eating raw or inadequately cooked meat from fresh water animals. The increasing global tourism, in addition to eating exotic foods have been induced a big rise in cases of the disease, however in our country has not reported any confirmed case of gnathostomiasis previously. We report the case of a 63 years-old Colombian man with an international travel history, who presented with gastrointestinal symptoms, during the hospital stay, develops a cutaneous lesion on the upper right abdominal cuadrant, later in that area, a tiny larva was found. A morphological study allows its identification as Gnathostoma spinigerum. This article describes the principles, etiology, pathogenic cycle and treatment of this disease with special considerations on our patient's features. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): | La gnatostomiasis es una enfermedad zoonótica parasitaria debida a algunas especies del género de helmintos Gnathostoma, la presentación clínica es muy variada y su diagnóstico un desafío, es endémica en países tropicales y subtropicales y la transmisión se asocia con el consumo de carne de animales acuáticos cruda o mal cocida. El creciente turismo internacional y consumo de alimentos exóticos ha provocado en las últimas décadas un notable aumento de los casos de esta entidad, en nuestro país no se ha reportado ningún caso confirmado de gnatostomiasis. Se presenta el caso de un hombre colombiano de 63 años de edad con antecedente de múltiples viajes internacionales y quien consultó por síntomas gastrointestinales, durante la hospitalización desarrolló una lesión cutánea en el flanco abdominal derecho desde donde se extrajo una larva cuya descripción morfológica permitió clasificarla como Gnathostoma spinigerum.* Se trata del primer reporte de un caso importado de gnathostomiasis confirmado en Colombia, en este artículo discutimos las generalidades, etiología, patogenia y tratamiento de esta enfermedad con especial interés en las características particulares de nuestro paciente.
