Q

Blood flukes: Pathogenesis, Pathology and Clinical Manifestations

  • The miracidium inside the egg secretes mucus that irritates the intestines causing eggs to escape from the vessels into the perivascular tissues or into the lumen of the intestines. Eggs, in the tissues, are sequestered by eosinophils. Eggs maybe carried to different sites by the circulation.
  • The ability of the eggs to stimulate antibody production leads to the development of a serologic test called Circum-Oval Precipitin Test (COPT). This stage of the infection is also marked with plenty of eggs being extruded in the feces (or urine depending upon the species of the worm).

Liver (stage 3)

62
Q

Blood flukes: Pathogenesis, Pathology and Clinical Manifestations

  • Granuloma in the liver can cause obstructive pressure on blood vessels passing through this organ, such as the portal veins
  • Blood flow is impeded causing dilatation of the smaller branches of the vessels.
  • There will be enlargement and engorgement of the superficial vessels of the abdomen and development of esophageal varices, which may rupture, and patient may vomit blood. Dilated superficial vessels on the abdomen results to spider nevi or caput medusa (dilated vessels at the navel)
