We report a case of cutaneous gnathostomiasis acquired in Myanmar where this parasitic zoonosis was considered as non-endemic until a recent outbreak. Myanmar must be added to the list of countries where the infection can be acquired in Southeast Asia. Despite a treatment with ivermectin the patient relapsed after an apparent cure. A double-dose of ivermectin is now recommended for the treatment of gnathostomiasis.
我们报告了一例在缅甸感染皮肤颚口线虫病的病例,在最近的疫情爆发之前,这种寄生虫人畜共患病在缅甸被认为是非地方性疾病。缅甸必须被列入东南亚可感染该病的国家名单。尽管使用伊维菌素进行了治疗,但患者在看似治愈后仍复发。现在建议使用双倍剂量的伊维菌素治疗颚口线虫病。
