The clinical diagnosis of trichinellosis can be difficult due to lack of pathognomonic signs or symptoms. In Korea, since the first report of human infection by Trichinella spiralis in 1997 following the consumption of raw badger meat, there have been occasional trichinellosis outbreaks. We describe an outbreak of 12 cases of trichinellosis in Korea and implicate raw wild boar meat as the culprit. A total of 27 larvae of Trichinella (0.54 larvae per gram of meat) were recovered from the leftover raw wild boar meat.
由于缺乏特征性的体征或症状，旋毛虫病的临床诊断可能较为困难。自 1997 年韩国首次报告因食用生獾肉而感染旋毛虫以来，旋毛虫病偶有爆发。我们描述了韩国的一次 12 例旋毛虫病暴发事件，并将生野猪肉作为罪魁祸首。从剩余的生野猪肉中总共分离出 27 条旋毛虫幼虫（每克肉 0.54 条幼虫）。
