Q

Life cycle of enterobius vermicularis

A
  1. adult worms live in the cecum
  2. male worms die after fertilization
  3. female worms migrate through the large intestine to the anus to lay sticky eggs on the perianal region
  4. eggs swallowen and hatch in the intestine and larva moult twice to become adult

Q

mode of infection of Enterobium vermicularis

A
  1. autoinfection hand-mouth
  2. contaminated food and water
  3. contaminated clothes
  4. contaminated dust inhaled or swallowen
  5. Retroinfection: Eggs hatch in the perianal region and the larva migrate back to the large intestine

A

Pruritus ani due to egg laying especially at night
Nocturnal enuresis due to irritation urethritis and cystitis
Nervous irritability and insomnia
vaginitis, pelvic peritonitis after salpingitis, appendicitis, diarhhea due to migration to small intestine

Q

Diagnosis of enterobius vermicularis

A

clinicaly pruritus ani and vulval itching
adult worms may be seen at anus ot in stools
eggs are rarely seen in stools
Swabing of anal and perianal region by
1. NIh swab
2. Scotch adhesive tape swap

Q

habitat of the T. vaginalis

A

urogenital tract of both male and female vagina, urethra, prostate

17
Q

t.vaginalis resides on …….. //feeds on …….// divides by …….

A
  1. mm of vagina urethra prostate
  2. bacteria and white blood cells
  3. binary fission
18
Q

final host of T. vaginalis
diagnostic stage
infective stage

A

man
trophozite
trophozite

19
Q

How many types of surface adhesive proteins of T. vaginalis

A

4 types

20
Q

the adhesion to the surface epithelium result in

A

contact dependent cytopathic effect with subsequent killing of these cells without being phagocytosed by the trophozoites

21
Q

secrete cell detching factors

A

T. vaginalis

22
Q

pathogenesis of T. vaginalis

A
  • Trophozoites then secretes cell detching
    factors results in detachment of these infected cells
    and pass as discharge(vaginal or urethral)
  • This pathological changes facilitate 2ry
    bacterial infectionworse the symptoms
23
Q

cause profuse vaginal discharge

A

Trichomonas Vaginalis

24
Q

clinical picture of T. vaginalis

A

profuse vaginal discharge with pruritis and itching
Dysuria
Frequency
Urgency
infertility (vaginitis, cervicitis, prostatitis) results in hostile discharge, contains inflammatory cells, IgG, necrotic tissue that may affect sperm motility and increase of dead sperms

25
Q

causes painful ejaculation

A

T. vaginalis

26
Q

direct Diagnosis of t. vaginalis

A

swabs taken by coton stick from vaginal or urethral discharge for
1. microscopic examination to detect t. vaginalis
2. stain with trichrome stain
3. culture of diamonds medium

27
Q

Indirect diagnosis of t. vaginalis

A

a) Detection of specific antibodies using ELISA
b) Identification of trophozoites by IFAT using
monoclonal antibody test
c) Immunochromatography test(dipstick): that
able to detect Trophozoite antigen in
urine,urethral and vaginal discharge with in
10 min(freezing and transportation of
specimens do not alter the test result

28
Q

pathogenesis of T. vaginalis

A
  1. contact mm and adhere to them with 4 types of surface adhesive proteins
  2. causes contact dependent cytopathic effect with subsequent killing of these cells without being phagocytosed by the trophozoites
  3. Trophozoites then secretes cell detching factors detachment of these infected cells and pass as discharge(vaginal or urethral)
  4. This pathological changes facilitate 2ry bacterial infectionworse the symptoms
29
Q

causes preterm labour

A

trichonomas vaginalis

30
Q

causes neonatal infection

A

Trichonomas Vaginalis cause neonatal vulvovaginitis to female babies

31
Q

Should treat both partners

A

T. Vaginalis
