Abstract:
In 1997, 736 intestinal cestode cases were registered in Poland. Among them 634 were caused by T. saginata, 6 by T. solium, 63 by Taenia sp, 15 by Hymenolepsis sp, and 2 by D. latum and D. caninum. Moreover, 27 cases of larval cestode infections were also registered. Four of them were caused by larvae of T. solium and the remaining ones bz E. granulosus. The obtained results confirmed the decreasing frequency of infections with intestinal cestodes in Poland.
