Global increases in salmon consumption and changes in fish-eating habits have meant that Diphyllobothrium infections now occur in regions where they were previously absent. In the present paper, a case of diphyllobothriasis through the likely ingestion of raw salmon in New Zealand in a Japanese patient is reported. The causative tapeworm species was identified as Diphyllobothrium nihonkaiense based on mitochondrial DNA analysis of proglottid expelled from the patient.
全球三文鱼消费量的增加以及食鱼习惯的改变意味着，阔节裂头绦虫感染现在出现在了以前没有这种感染的地区。在本文中，报告了一名日本患者在新西兰因可能食用生三文鱼而感染阔节裂头绦虫病的病例。根据对从患者体内排出的节片进行的线粒体DNA分析，确定致病绦虫种类为日本阔节裂头绦虫。
