A 35-year-old woman contracted severe trichinosis which was atypical in that it lacked a gastrointestinal prodrome and periorbital edema, and in that eosinophilia developed only late in the course of the illness. The patient developed an incapacitating myositis as well as complications of encephalopathy, myocarditis, and retinal hemorrhages, resulting in severe debilitation of more than two and one-half months' duration. Muscle histochemistry illustrated previously unreported features.
一名35岁女性感染了严重的旋毛虫病，该病具有非典型性，即缺乏胃肠道前驱症状和眶周水肿，且嗜酸性粒细胞增多仅在病程后期出现。患者出现了导致身体衰弱的肌炎以及脑病、心肌炎和视网膜出血等并发症，导致严重身体虚弱持续两个半月以上。肌肉组织化学显示出先前未报道的特征。
