Area of Science:

  • Parasitology
  • Dermatology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Subcutaneous sparganosis is a rare zoonotic parasitic infection caused by plerocercoid larvae of Spirometra species.
  • It typically occurs following consumption of contaminated water or undercooked meat, or through direct contact with infected intermediate hosts.

Observation:

  • A case of subcutaneous sparganosis is presented, detailing the clinical presentation and diagnostic process.
  • The patient exhibited a palpable subcutaneous nodule, which was further investigated through imaging and biopsy.

Findings:

  • Diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological examination of the excised nodule, revealing characteristic features of sparganosis.
  • Successful treatment involved complete surgical excision of the parasitic larva.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering sparganosis in the differential diagnosis of subcutaneous nodules, especially in endemic areas.
  • Early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are crucial for favorable outcomes and preventing complications associated with sparganosis.
