An 11-month-old infant presented with a subcutaneous nodule in the right cheek which was found by ultrasonography to be a worm. Following treatment with di-ethylcarbamazine, a worm emerged from the left upper eyelid which was confirmed to be Dirofilaria repens. Dirofilariasis usually manifests as a single lesion and is rare in infants.
一名11个月大的婴儿右脸颊出现一个皮下结节，超声检查发现是一条蠕虫。用乙胺嗪治疗后，一条蠕虫从左上眼睑出现，经确认是匐行恶丝虫。恶丝虫病通常表现为单个病灶，在婴儿中很少见。
