A Belgian traveler returning from Laos developed acute schistosomiasis. Feces microscopy and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by sequence analysis revealed Schistosoma mekongi. Schistosome antibody test results and real-time PCR in serum were initially negative or not interpretable. A HRP-2 antigen test for Plasmodium falciparum and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) antibody test for Trichinella yielded false-positive results.
一位从老挝返回的比利时旅行者患上了急性血吸虫病。粪便显微镜检查和聚合酶链反应(PCR)后序列分析显示为湄公血吸虫。血吸虫抗体检测结果和血清实时 PCR 最初为阴性或无法解释。疟原虫环子孢子蛋白(HRP-2)抗原检测和旋毛虫酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)抗体检测结果均为假阳性。
