Human parasites’ family tree Parasites are classiﬁed as: Protozoa “NEXT lecture” ○ Complexity: Single-celled. ○ Onset of symptoms: days-weeks ○ Diagnostic forms: Cysts & trophozoites ○ Elevated immune cells: Neutrophils Helminths (Metazoa) “THIS lecture” ○ Complexity: Multi-cellular ○ Onset of symptoms: >1 month ○ Diagnostic forms: Eggs / Larvae ○ Elevated immune cells: Eosinophils Flatworms (Platyhelminthes) Cestodes 1. Taenia saginata 2. Taenia solium 3. Echinococcus granulosus Trematodes Roundworms (Nematodes) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Enterobius (Oxyuris) vermicularis (pinworm) Trichuris trichiura (whipworm) Ascaris lumbricoides (roundworm) Ancylostoma duodenale & Necator americanus (hookworm) Strongyloides stercoralis Extra Introduction to Parasitology Important Terminology Vectors Are living transmitters (e.g. a ﬂy) of disease and my be: ○ Mechanical: transport parasite but there is no development of parasite in the vector ○ Biological: some stages of life cycle occur Life cycle ○ Life cycle: Is the process of a parasite’s growth, development & reproduction, which proceeds in one or more diﬀerent hosts depending on the species of parasites. ○ Direct life cycle: When parasite requires only one host to complete its life cycle. ○ Indirect life cycle:When two or more hosts are required to complete its life cycle ○ Infectious stage: the stage in the life cycle of an endoparasite in which it can initiate infection to its host e.g., cysts in protozoan ○ Diagnostic stage: e.g. trophozoite in protozoan infections, eggs/worm in helminth infection Others ○ Obligatory: They are always in contact with host and cannot survive without them ○ Free living: They can live independently of their host, partially on soil. ○ Deﬁnitive host: It is the host in which the sexual reproduction (adult) takes place or most highly developed form exists (usually humans) ○ Intermediate host: It is the host in which asexual reproduction takes place. ○ Reservoir: This is an animal host which serves as the source from which other animal are infected. ○ Gravid worms: Carrying eggs. ○ Embryonated egg "Larvated egg”: A nematode egg with a developed larva inside it. Most nematode eggs leave the host in the morula stage and develop in the environment to the embryonated stage (the stage just before hatching).A few nematode eggs are embryonated at the time they leave the host. ○ Unembryonated egg: Egg without an embryo, due to a lack of fertilization or to zygotic lethality ○ Larva migrans: Means that the larvae (‫ )ﯾﺮﻗﺔ‬living in their abnormal hosts in which they can not grow into adults but can wander everywhere and cause the local and systemic pathological lesions of the hosts. ○ Zoonosis: refers to animal’s diseases. which can be transmitted to humans. ○ Sporozoite: a motile spore-like stage in the life cycle of some parasitic sporozoans ○ Trophozoites:a growing stage in the life cycle of some sporozoan parasites, when they are absorbing nutrients from the host. ○ Cysts: a stage in the life cycle of certain parasites, during which they are enveloped in a protective wall, facilitates their survival during unfavorable environmental conditions. ○ Oocyst (‫)ﻛﯿﺴﺔ ﺑﯿﺾ‬: a cyst containing a zygote formed by a parasitic protozoan Introduction Classiﬁcations of Parasites Class Protozoa Features Helminths ○ Unicellular ○ Single cell for all functions No sexual stage, replicate by binary fission Types 1. Amoebae: move by pseudopodia 2. Flagellates: move by flagella 3. Ciliates: move by cilia 4. Apicomplexa (Sporozoa) tissue parasites ○ Multicellular ○ Specialized cells -They are like human, have systems: Respiratory, Reproductive.. -As long as there is reproductive system so there will be sexual stage in their life cycle 1. Roundworms (Nematodes): Elongated, cylindrical, unsegmented 2. Flat worms Trematodes: leaf-like, unsegmented Cestodes: tape-like,segmented ○ Mnemonic: trematodes = tree = leaf like Cestodes = cm = tape Nematodes (‫)اﻟﺪﯾﺪان اﻟﺨﯿﻄﯿﺔ‬ General Features ○ Elongated worm ○ Cylindrical ○ Un-segmented ○ Tapering at both ends ○ Variable in size (measure < 1cm to about 100cm) ○ Sex separate ○ Male is smaller than female Location in the human body ○ Intestinal nematodes ○ Tissue nematodes Common intestinal infections ○ Enterobius (Oxyuris) vermicularis (pinworm, seatworm, Threadworm) ○ Trichuris trichiura (whipworm) ○ Ascaris lumbricoides (roundworm) ○ Ancylostoma duodenale & Necator americanus (hookworms) ○ Strongyloides stercoralis Enterobius Vermicularis (Oxyuris) Threadworm, Pinworm, Seatworm (‫)اﻟﺪودة اﻟﺪﺑﻮﺳﯿﺔ اﻟﺨﯿﻄﯿﺔ‬ General Information Life Cycle {1} ○ Found all over the world but more common in temperate regions ‫اﻟﻤﻨﺎخ اﻟﻤﻌﺘﺪل‬ ○ ★Children are more often evolved than adults cuz they don’t wash their hands well , it tends to occur in groups living together such as families, army camps or nursery, and in ↓ hygiene. ○ Adult worms are mainly located in lumen of cecum and the female migrate to rectum to deposits her eggs on peri-anal area. ○ Direct human to human infections occurs mainly by swallowing the eggs. In addition, autoinfection occurs by contamination of the ﬁngers ○ It can be seen by naked eye as white thread ± 1cm. ○ Male is smaller than female ± 0.5 cm, with coiled end. not important ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ Fecal oral route Diagnostic stage: Un-embryonated eggs Infective stage: Embryonated egg Needs a few hours after the egg is released to become infective What causes the disease: adult worms Larva Pathology ○ Some / Most of infections are asymptomatic ○ Main clinical presentation ★★*(anal itching) Nocturnal* pruritus ani which can be very troublesome and occurs more often during the night, persistent itching may lead to inﬂammation and secondary bacterial infection of the perianal region. There will be white substance in the anal area. ○ Ectopic infection -enterobiasis- (fallopian tubes infection) because the vagina near to anal canal & it’s rare but can happened in severe cases occurs in women if the adult female parasite invade vulva & vagina result in vulvovaginitis, salpingitis ○ Also, adult worm can lodged in the lumen of appendix cause appendicitis. ○ Infected children may suﬀer from: Emotional disturbance - Loss of weight Insomnia - Loss of concentration Anorexia - Enuresis Diagnosis ○ Unlike other intestinal Nematodes, the eggs are not usually found in feces the only nematode that not diagnosed by stool examination ○ The best method is to look for them around the anus by taking an anal swab or by using ★CELLULOSE ADHESIVE TAPE ○ The examination should be done before defecation or bathing. Treatment Albendazole , Mebendazole for whole family . Ascaris Lumbricoides Roundworm (‫)دودة اﻻﺳﻜﺎرس اﻻﺳﻄﻮاﻧﯿﺔ‬ General Information Female Slides Life Cycle {2} pictures below Dr. Mona: I’ll explain it to you but i will NOT ask you about it So, just know red Pathology ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ The commonest human helminthes infection all over the world. Human is the only deﬁnitive host* Where the sexual stage occur The large roundworm is normally located in the small intestine. Found in jejunum & upper part of ileum. Female: ± 20 cm longer than male Male ± 10 cm Feed on semi digested food can lead to malabsorption & malnutrition ○ It infect human only, when man ingest food or water contaminated with *Embryonated egg (infective stage)* → egg shell is dissolved by digestive juices → Larva penetrate the wall of the duodenum → portal circulation for (3 days) → right heart → pulmonary circulation and stay in the alveoli ,where it grow and molts for (3 weeks) → Larva crawl up bronchi, trachea ,larynx and pharynx and be coughed up , then swallowed → returned to the small intestine where it mature to adults male & female, fertilization take place producing fertilized eggs & unfertilized eggs (diagnostic stage) which pass in stool. ○ These eggs has to be in the soil for 3 weeks to become an *embryonated eggs (infective stage)* ○ Adult worm: (small intestine) 1. Light infection : asymptomatic 2. Heavy infection : ★intestinal obstruction & can lead to death 3. Migrating adult : to bile duct - jaundice ○ Larvae will lead to ★Loeﬄer’s syndrome which is pneumonitis & bronchospasm, cough with bloody sputum, eosinophilia, and urticaria Diagnosis ○ ○ ○ ○ Treatment Albendazole , Mebendazole Diagnostic stage: un-embryonated egg Eggs in stool (fertilized or unfertilized) Larvae in sputum Adult may pass with stool Dr. Mona: All parasites in this lecture have the same treatment. but i don’t think we will ask you about it Ascaris larva in lung Trichuris trichiura Dr. Mona: The only thing that i want you to know is what does it cause? General Information Whipworm (‫)اﻟﺴﻮطﯿﺔ‬ ○ World wide, common in poor sanitation. ○ It coexists with Ascaris because of similar requirement (the eggs needs 3 weeks in the soil to be embryonated which is the infective stage). ○ Adult live in large intestine especially caecum & appendix ○ In heavy infection the whole length of large intestine aﬀected. ○ Male and female worm have narrow anterior portion penetrate the intestinal mucosa ○ Infective stage: embryonated eggs Life Cycle Pathology ○ Light infection : asymptomatic ○ Heavy infection : ★ rectal prolapse in children is a common complication, abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea. Diagnosis ○ Diagnostic stage: un-embryonated egg in stool characterized by its barrel shape with mucoid plugs at each pole. Treatment Albendazole Ancylostoma duodenale & Necator americanus Hookworm (‫ ﻣﺼﺎص اﻟﺪﻣﺎء‬،‫)اﻟﺨﻄﺎﻓﯿﺔ‬ General Information Life Cycle {3} I will not ask you about this, what is important is to what it does to the body? ○ Buccal cavity attached to intestinal mucosa, Its buccal capsule (mouth) lined with hard hooks, triangular cutting plates and anticoagulant glands. ○ Infective stage: FILARIFORM LARVA which penetrate the skin cause itching & dermatitis → larva go to the circulation (lungs causes slight pneumonitis & bronchitis) → larva then swallowed and go to small intestine → they attach to the mucous membrane where they mature into adult and the female starts laying eggs to be passed in stool (not infective) ○ Filariform Larvae (infective stage) invasion of the skin can produce a skin disease called cutaneous larva migrans (creeping eruption), this is commonly caused by walking barefoot through areas contaminated with fecal matter → Larva migrate through the vascular system to the lungs, and from there up the trachea, and are swallowed → They then pass down the esophagus and enter the digestive system, ﬁnishing their journey in the small intestine where the larvae mature into adult worms → They mate inside the host, females laying up to 30,000 eggs/day i can diagnose from egg but the which pass out in feces (diagnostic stage). so infection is after becoming a larva The eggs need to be in soil for about one week to become FILARIFORM LARVA INFECTIVE STAGE. ○ There are no speciﬁc symptoms or signs of hookworm infection. But they give rise to a combination of: 1. Intestinal inﬂammation 2. progressive ★iron-deﬁciency anemia 3. protein deﬁciency Pathology / Clinical picture Diagnosis Treatment ○ Larvae: 1. At the site of entry larvae intense itching (ground itch) and dermatitis 2. Migration phase: - Cough with bloody sputum - Pneumonitis & bronchitis but less severe than Ascaris, eosinophilia urticaria. ○ Adult worm: 1. Low worm burden (infection): no symptoms 2. Moderate to heavy burden: - Epigastric pain, vomiting, hemorrhagic enteritis - Protein loss: hypo-proteinemia edema - Anemia: due to withdrawal of blood by parasites and hemorrhage from punctured sites lead to severe anemia = microcytic hypochromic anemia ○ eggs in stools ○ Occult blood (+) Albendazole , Mebendazole . Strongyloides Stercoralis (‫)أﺳﻄﻮاﻧﯿﺔ ﺑﺮازﯾﺔ‬ General Information ○ Widely distributed in tropical area at Asia, Africa & South America . ○ Fatal very serious dissemination in ★immunocompromised host. the internal will be faster the external ○ It is smallest pathogenic nematodes ± 2.5mm. ○ Adult live in mucous membrane of duodenum, jejunum rarely mucous membrane of bronchus ★ Internal (most imp one) & external Autoinfection is a very important criteria. Life Cycle ◎ The parasite shows 3 different modes of development: 1. Direct development: The rhabditiform larva pass from stool and become directly a Filariform larva if the environment of the soil is suitable. (directly from diagnostic stage to infective stage) 2. Indirect / External development: in external environment rhabditiform larva becomes free living adults, produce eggs, rhabditiform larvae and Filariform larva (Infective stage) penetrate the skin 3. Autoinfection: mainly in immunocompromised patient ▸ ★Internal★-Autoinfection: when the rhabditiform larva become a filariform larva in the intestinal mucosa or perianal area and penetrate the intestine ▸ External-Autoinfection: fecal contamination of skin Rhabditiform larva → Filariform penetrates the skin. pictures below Pathology / Clinical picture ○ Cutaneous: little reaction on penetration. Severe dermatitis at perianal region in case of external autoinfection. ○ Migration: pneumonitis during larval migration. ○ Intestinal: inflammation of upper intestinal mucosa, diarrhea, upper abdominal pain in the epigastria colicky in nature. ○ Disseminated strongyloidiasis: in patient with immunodeficiency, uncontrolled diarrhea, granulomatous changes, necrosis, perforation, peritonitis & death The only parasite that exit to the soil as Diagnosis Rhabditiform larvae (diagnostic stage) in: embryo “larva”, the rest are eggs in soil ○ Stool examination ○ Duodenal aspira Treatment Albendazole, Mebendazole . Female Slides Summary of Common intestinal Nematodes Name Transmission infective stage Enterobius vermicularis Ascaris lumbricoides Trichuris trichiura Hookworm Ancylostoma duodenale & necator americanus Strongyloides Stercoral Location in adult human Diagnostic stage Swallowing the eggs, external Autoinfection Large intestine Caecum Adult pass in anus at midnight → Cellulose adhesive tape we detect adult worm Swallowing of Embryonated egg Small intestine Duodenum 1. fertilized & unfertilized eggs in the stool 2. adult worm in the stool 3. larva in the sputum Asymptomatic but can cause intestinal obstruction in heavy infection pneumonitis & bloody sputum in larva stage Swallowing of Embryonated egg Large intestine Un-embryonated eggs - Asymptomatic in light infection - Rectal prolapse in children Egg in the stool - Itching & pruritus at sight of entry. - Cough & blood in the sputum at larval migration stage. - Loss of blood MICROCYTIC HYPOCHROMIC ANEMIA Rhabditiform Larva - Pruritus at the site of larval penetration - Inflammation in the small intestine - Autoinfection in patient with immunodeficiency - uncontrolled diarrhea, granulomatous changes, necrosis, perforation, peritonitis, death - Larva penetration of the skin - Filariform larva the infective stage - Larva penetration of the skin filariform larva the infective stage - Autoinfection Small intestine Small intestine Clinical picture 1. pruritus ani during night 2. persistent itching 3. inflammation around anus Cestodes worms Cestodes tape like segmented parasite If you cut them in the middle they will continue to live Taenia saginata (from cow) Taenia solium (from pig) Echinococcus granulosus Taenia Saginata (Beef tapeworm) General Information Life Cycle picture below Clinical findings Notes ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ Found in the muscles of animals Is an obligatory parasite of mans, the adult worm lives in the small intestine Definitive host: Human Intermediate host: cattle Infective stage: cyst ○ Cattle become infected by ingesting grass contaminated with eggs or gravid segments which passed from human faeces → In the cattle, the oncosphere hatches out go to circulation and transformed to cysticercus stage in the muscle known as cysticercus bovis → Man becomes infected by eating under / improperly cooked beef, the adult worm lives in small intestine of man passing eggs & gravid proglottids / segments to the environment. ○ Briefly: human pass the eggs in the stool → cattle eat the eggs → turned to cyst in the cattle muscle “intermediate host”→ human eat the beef → the cyst transformed into adult in human body “definitive host” The majority of cases with adult T.saginata in the small intestine are Asymptomatic. But, some have vague intestinal discomfort, vomiting, diarrhea, malaise & some abdominal cramps. ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ In Taenia Saginata infections there is usually only one worm in an infected person Cysticercus Bovis have heat protection which is why it can survive if it is undercooked Infective stage: cyst acquired by ingesting undercooked beef Diagnostic stage: eggs and gravid segments (pieces of the worm) in stool. What if human consumed these eggs? nothing will happen as the infective stage for human is the cyst NOT the eggs. it will be cyst in the cow Taenia Solium & Hymenolepis nana Female Taenia Solium (Pork tapeworm) Life cycle Slides Man can be infected by 2 ways: 1. Eating eggs: Patient will develop cysts in various part in the body (cysticercosis) in eye, brain can be very dangerous. 2. Eating undercooked pork contain cystocercus: Patient will develop an adult worm in the small intestine. this picture is in both male & female slides Clinical findings ○ Taenia solium (pig tapeworm): Cysticercus of Taenia solium in brain ,eyes and skin ○ Can be very dangerous according to its location. Laboratory diagnosis ○ Taenia infection is usually diagnosed by finding the typical segments (proglottids) & eggs in feces. ○ Clinical diagnosis of Taenia solium by C.T scan of the brain or abdomen according to the position of cysticerci in the human body. Treatment Single dose of Praziquantel is usually successful in T.saginata but T.solium some time needs surgical intervention. Hymenolepis nana (dwarf tapeworm) Male Slides Echinococcus granulosus = hydatid cysts Female Slides Life Cycle pictures below Female Slides Symptoms ○ E. granulosus requires two host types: 1. Definitive host: Dogs the only parasite that transmitted by dogs 2. Intermediate host: most commonly sheep, cattle, pigs, goats, camels and also Humans. ○ Dog (definitive host): become infected by eating sheep’s or cattle muscle having hydatid cyst then parasite become an adult in the small intestine of the dog and start releasing eggs witch excreted in the feces of the dog ○ Human (Intermediate host): become infected by ingestion of Echinococcus Granulosus eggs, usually by hand-to-mouth contact with infected dog feces → The ingested eggs migrate to the various body tissues and produce hydatid cysts. The life cycle is terminated at this point. ○ Vary, depending on the location of the cyst in tissues. ○ Although, cysts may form in many areas of the body, ★★liver followed by lung & brain are most commonly affected. ○ One serious complication of hydatid cyst disease is the risk of anaphylactic shock, following rupture of the ocyst. Diagnosis ○ Radiological examination: computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a cystic swelling with smooth outline. ○ Serological examination / test: to detect specific antibodies ELIZA,CFT. ○ Casoni’s test: it is an intradermal test used to detect immediate hypersensitivity in hydatid disease. ○ Microscopical examination: hydatid sand, hydatid fluid may be withdrawn by the fine needle aspiration and examined under the microscope for scolices or hooklets. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROCEDURE Treatment ○ Intestinal stages: Praziquantel ○ Tissue stages (hydatid & cysticercosis): depends on clinical condition: Surgical and/or Albendazole Summary of Common Tapeworm (Cestodes) Infections Name Taenia saginata Taenia solium ADULT Taenia solium LARVA (cysticercus cellulosae) Disease Transmission of infection Taeniasis Ingestion of larva in undercooked beef Taeniasis Ingestion of larva in undercooked beef Location of adult in humans Location of larva in humans Small Intestine Not present Small Intestine Not present Not present (except in Autoinfection on (Double infection), small intestine) Cysticercsis Ingestion of egg Hymenolepis nana in male slides Hymenole piais Ingestion of egg Small intestine Echinococcus granulosus Hydatid disease Ingestion of egg Not present Clinical picture Lab diagnosis Vague digestive disturbances Eggs or proglottids in stools Vague digestive disturbances Eggs or proglottids in stools Subcutaneous muscles brain, eyes Depending on locality: from none to epilepsy X-ray, CT, MRI Serology Intestinal villi Enteritis diarrhoea Eggs in stools LIVER***, lungs, Bones etc Depending on locality X-ray, CT, US Serology Hydatid sand Dr Notes 1.

Life cycle of ascaris: 1. small intestine of human contain male & female Ascaris so when they are fertilization they make an egg 2. then human pass stool in soil (it must be passed stool in soil for the growth of Ascaris so that’s why the rate of incidence of Ascaris decreased cuz human now use the toilet ) with an egg and it could be an unfertilized egg will not grow and it will dead or fertilized egg 3. the fertilized egg must stay in the soil for 2-3 weeks for the life cycle to continue growth and become an embryo 4. so how does ascaris affect the human? the soil contains vegetables like lettuce and it contains embryonated eggs so when the lettuce is not cleaned very well and we eat it the egg will go into our stomach 5. egg has a shell that protects the embryo from the acidity of the stomach then when it reaches the intestine the shell will dissolve and the larva penetrates the wall of the intestine and go to the bloodstream 6. then it will go to the lung and stays for 3 weeks to have a good O2 7. after that when it grows up the human will cough with blood cuz it does not feel comfortable so with the cough some larva will return again to the small intestine and it will be an adult 3. Life cycle of Hookworm: First things the person is barefoot on the farm, so where do the larvae come from? It comes from a person pass stool with the egg, and the egg stays in the soil for about a week to grow into a larva Then human walk and the larva penetrates the skin and enters the blood, then into the lungs to grow, then the human will cough and enters the intestines and remains there, suck the blood, and passing the egg. Note: There is no importance in knowing the details of the life cycle Extra Key words Enterobius Vermicularis (Oxyuris) ○ Threadworm, Pinworm ○ Children ○ Located in lumen of cecum ○ Autoinfection occurs by contamination of the ﬁngers ★ Nocturnal pruritus ani, anal itching ★ Diagnosed by cellulose adhesive test Ascaris Lumbricoides ○ Roundworm ○ Located in small intestine ○ These eggs has to be in the soil for 3 weeks to reach the infective stage ★ Heavy infection with adult worm will cause: intestinal obstruction ★ Infection with larva will cause: loeffer’s syndrome ○ Deﬁnitive host: human only Trichuris trichiura ○ Whipworm ○ Adult live in large intestine especially caecum ★ Heavy infection will cause rectal prolapse in children Ancylostoma duodenale & Necator americanus ○ Hookworm ○ Caused by walking barefoot through areas contaminated with fecal matter ★ They give rise to iron-deﬁciency anemia & protein deﬁciency Strongyloides Stercoralis Taenia Saginata ★ Fatal in immunocompromised host. ★ Internal ★ & external Autoinfection (mainly in immunocompromised patient) ○ Diagnostic stage: rhabditiform larvae ★ Beef tapeworm ★ Infected by eating undercooked beef ○ Definitive host: human ○ Intermediate host: cattle (cysticercus bovis in the muscle) Taenia Solium ★ Pork tapeworm ★ Infected by eating eggs OR undercooked pork ○ travel to brain, eye and skin ○ Definitive host: human Echinococcus granulosus ★ Hydatid cysts ○ Cysts may form in many areas of the body: ★liver, lung & brain. ○ Risk of anaphylactic shock ○ Diagnosed by Casoni’s test ○ Definitive host: Dogs ○ Intermediate host: human For Anki flashcards Special thanks to Shaden alhazzani MCQs All these questions were hinted by female dr.
