Lymphatic filariasis is a major vector borne disease prevalent in the tropics. This study was carried out to estimate the seroprevalence of lymphatic filariasis in and around Puducherry using indirect haemaggulutination test. Of the 5056 clinically suspected cases, 2214 (43.78%) were found to be positive, of whom majority were males (57.8%) belonging to the age group of 21-40 years, indicating that lymphatic filariasis mainly affects the adolescents and adults mainly. This high seroprevalence is a matter of immediate concern and necessary control programme is urgently required to check the transmission of filariasis.
淋巴丝虫病是一种在热带地区流行的主要病媒传播疾病。本研究旨在通过间接血凝试验评估本地治里及其周边地区淋巴丝虫病的血清流行率。在5056例临床疑似病例中，发现2214例（43.78%）呈阳性，其中大多数为男性（57.8%），年龄在21至40岁之间，这表明淋巴丝虫病主要影响青少年和成年人。这种高血清流行率令人立即担忧，迫切需要实施必要的控制计划以遏制丝虫病的传播。
