Abstract:

Human pentastomiasis is an unusual parasitic zoonosis caused by wormlike pentastomids. Of the many pentastome species，10 are known to infect humans in the world，and among them，Armillifer armillatus and Linguatula serrata are the main pathogenic species which can account for most human infections. According to the location in human body and clinical symptoms of the main pathogenic species，human pentastomiasis can be divided into two parasitic types clinically，the visceral type and naso? pharyngeal type. The methods for diagnosing pentastomiasis is based on the morphology，histopathological and imageology exami? nations combined with clinical manifestations and epidemiology，but the relational serological and molecular tests are rarely report? ed. In this article，we aim to provide a basic review of human pentastomiasis on the pathogen，clinical manifestations，endemic ar? eas and primary diagnostic methods.

摘要：

人舌形虫病是由蠕虫样舌形虫引起的一种罕见人兽共患寄生虫病， 目前世界上发现的可寄生于人体的舌形虫共有10种， 主要为腕带舌形虫和锯齿舌形虫。根据主要致病舌形虫在人体的寄生部位和症状表现的不同， 在临床上主要分为内脏型和鼻咽型两种寄生类型。诊断方法主要是基于形态学、 组织病理学及影像学检查， 同时结合临床表现、 流行病史进行的综合诊断， 而相关血清学、 分子生物学检测方法的研究较少。本文对人舌形虫病的病原、 临床表现、 流行地区和诊断等方面的研究进展作一综述。
