In the period 1987-2001, 111 cases of imported parasitoses were diag- nosed in three Italian dermatology departments (Monza, Milan and Siena): 22 cases of tungiasis, 11 of furuncular myiasis and 78 of creeping eruption. The patients were 73 males and 38 women, who had been on trips abroad. All underwent appropriate treatment and recovered. Here we describe the geographic location of the parasites, the clinical features of the skin manifestations and differential diagnoses. Autochthonous cases of these infections, which are increasingly frequent as Europeans travel to endemic areas, have been described. Detailed knowledge of these parasitoses is necessary to enable prompt diagnosis and treatment.
在1987年至2001年期间，意大利的三个皮肤科科室（蒙扎、米兰和锡耶纳）诊断出111例输入性寄生虫病病例：22例潜蚤病、11例疖肿性蝇蛆病和78例匐行疹。患者中有73名男性和38名女性，他们都有出国旅行经历。所有患者均接受了适当治疗并康复。在此，我们描述了这些寄生虫的地理分布、皮肤表现的临床特征以及鉴别诊断。随着欧洲人前往流行地区旅行，这些感染的本地病例越来越常见，已有相关报道。对这些寄生虫病的详细了解对于及时诊断和治疗至关重要。
