We report a Japanese patient with loiasis who became infected in Cameroon. Despite the clinical history and laboratory data providing adequate evidence for suspecting loiasis, microfilariae were not detected in the blood. It is important to note that most infected travelers whose home countries are in nonendemic regions are amicrofilaremic.
我们报告一名在喀麦隆感染罗阿丝虫病的日本患者。尽管临床病史和实验室数据为怀疑罗阿丝虫病提供了充分证据，但血液中未检测到微丝蚴。需要注意的是，大多数来自非流行地区国家的受感染旅行者无微丝蚴血症。
