- Choose the false statement about the flatworms:
A) the most characteristic symptom of the infection of fish tapeworm is anaemia due to vitamin B12 deficiency
B)the treatment of alveolar echinococcosis is more difficult than cystic echinococcosis
C) the symptom called “swimmer’s itch” is related to infection of blood fluke
D) oval or spherical eggs with oncosphere surrounded by envelope, equipped with 4-8 polar filaments are characteristic for “oriental fluke”
B) The treatment of alveolar echinococcosis is more difficult than cystic echinococcosis
- Anaemia connected with deficiency of the B vitamin is a frequent symptom of infection of:
Select one:
a. Diphyllobothrium latum
b. Echinococcus granulosus
c. Taenia saginata
d. Taenia solium
a. Diphyllobothrium latum
- Which situation can NOT cause a brain or muscle infection in humans called cysticercosis
a. autoinfection during antiperistalsis in carriers of adult form of tapeworm
b. eating infected pork meat containing cysticerci
c. autoinfection by ingestion of gravid proglottides
d. eating food or vegetables contaminated with eggs of pork tapeworm
b. eating infected pork meat containing cysticerci
- Cysts of this parasite form a net of ramnicifation extending throughout affected organ (frequently
liver) with growing protoscolices at the ends of each branch. Larvae of this parasite are not encapsulated
by host connective and larval growth (in the liver) remains indefinitely in the proliferative stage (as in
the case of cancer). The description refers to:
a. Dipylidium caninum
b. Echinococcus granulosus
c. Dipylobothrium latum
d. Echinococcus multilocularis
d. Echinococcus multilocularis
- Bilharziosis is the name of the disease caused by:
a. Fasciola hepatica
b. Hymenolepis nana
c. Schistosoma haematobium
d. Taenia sp.
c. Schistosoma haematobium
- Choose the false statement about the tapeworms: Select one:
a. infections with Taenia saginata occur worldwide, wherever contaminated raw beef is eaten
b. the treatment of cystic echinococcosis is more difficult than alveolar echinococcosis
c. for Echinococcus granulosus human is intermediate host d
d. in life cycle of dwarf tapeworm no intermediate host is required – it is usually Monoxenous
b. the treatment of cystic echinococcosis is more difficult than alveolar echinococcosis
- The proper order of developmental stages of Fasciola hepatica in life cycle is presented in answer:
Select one:
a. egg – miracidium – sporocyst – redia – cerkariae – metacerkariae – adult form
b. egg – miracidium – redia – sporocyst – cerkariae – metacerkariae – adult form
c. egg – miracidium – sporocyst – metacerkaria – cerkariae – redia – adult form
d. miracidium – sporocyst – redia – metacerkaria – cerkariae – egg – adult form
a. egg – miracidium – sporocyst – redia – cerkariae – metacerkariae – adult form
10.Safe and effective medication used to treat most of the ivasions by flukes and tapeworms is: Select
one:
a. metronidazole
