A patient in Washington State harbored a fish tapeworm most likely acquired from eating raw salmon. Diphyllobothrium nihonkaiense was identified by cox1 sequence analysis. Although this is the first documented human D. nihonkaiense infection in the United States, the parasite may have been present earlier but misidentified as Diphyllobothrium latum.
华盛顿州的一名患者体内寄生着一种很可能因食用生三文鱼而感染的阔节裂头绦虫。通过细胞色素氧化酶亚基1(cox1)序列分析鉴定出了日本阔节裂头绦虫。尽管这是美国首次有记录的人体感染日本阔节裂头绦虫病例,但这种寄生虫可能此前就已存在,只是被误诊为肥胖带绦虫。
