At present non-invasive tests for diagnosing Schistosoma myelopathy are sub-optimal. We present a novel serological method, using paired liquor and serum samples, resulting in the diagnosis of Schistosoma myelopathy in a male patient with proximal muscle weakness. The patient recovered after praziquantel treatment.
目前，用于诊断脊髓血吸虫病的非侵入性检测方法并不理想。我们提出了一种新的血清学方法，使用配对的脑脊液和血清样本，成功诊断了一名近端肌无力的男性脊髓血吸虫病患者。该患者在接受吡喹酮治疗后康复。
