Abstract

Anisakidosis is an infection resulting from the ingestion of raw or undercooked fish products infected by Anisakidae larvae. Most infections are self-limiting in humans. We report a case of a 70-year-old woman who developed gastrointestinal symptoms after consumption of home-made ceviche of hake. Forty larvae of Anisakidae were removed during digestive fibroscopy. Based on a molecular method the larvae were identified as Anisakis simplex s. s. A second family member who had eaten the same meal was also diagnosed with anisakidosis. This cluster of two cases underlines the need to raise awareness of this disease in the general population and highlights the importance of cooking fish or freezing it prior to consumption in raw homemade dishes.

严格单感异尖线虫过度感染：来自法国两例聚集性病例的观察

异角虫病是一种因食用生的或未煮熟的鱼产品而引起的感染，受异角虫科幼虫感染。大多数人类感染是自我限制的。我们报告一个70岁的妇女谁出现胃肠道症状后，食用自制酸橘汁腌鱼的鳕鱼。在消化纤维镜检查中取出四十只八角蝇幼虫。根据分子方法鉴定，该幼虫为单一异尖线虫。另一名吃过同一餐的家庭成员也被诊断为异尖线虫病。这两例聚集性病例突出表明有必要提高一般人群对这一疾病的认识，并突出表明在食用生的自制菜肴之前将鱼煮熟或冷冻的重要性。

期刊介绍： Food and Waterborne Parasitology publishes high quality papers containing original research findings, investigative reports, and scientific proceedings on parasites which are transmitted to humans via the consumption of food or water. The relevant parasites include protozoa, nematodes, cestodes and trematodes which are transmitted by food or water and capable of infecting humans. Pertinent food includes products of animal or plant origin which are domestic or wild, and consumed by humans. Animals and plants from both terrestrial and aquatic sources are included, as well as studies related to potable and other types of water which serve to harbor, perpetuate or disseminate food and waterborne parasites. Studies dealing with prevalence, transmission, epidemiology, risk assessment and mitigation, including control measures and test methodologies for parasites in food and water are of particular interest. Evidence of the emergence of such parasites and interactions among domestic animals, wildlife and humans are of interest. The impact of parasites on the health and welfare of humans is viewed as very important and within scope of the journal. Manuscripts with scientifically generated information on associations between food and waterborne parasitic diseases and lifestyle, culture and economies are also welcome. Studies involving animal experiments must meet the International Guiding Principles for Biomedical Research Involving Animals as issued by the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences.
