Abstract

Lymphatic filariasis is endemic in India and Southeast Asia. Detection of microfilaria is infrequently reported during cytological evaluation of various lesions or body cavity fluids. Presence of microfilaria in pleural fluid cytology is very rare finding even in endemic areas. Few cases of accidental finding of microfilaria have been reported in association with malignant pleural effusion. But pleural effusion of filarial origin is extremely rare manifestation. Here we report a classical case of microfilaria in pleural fluid cytology.

摘要

淋巴丝虫病在印度和东南亚地区呈地方性流行。在对各种病变或体腔液进行细胞学评估时，很少有关于检测到微丝蚴的报告。即使在地方性流行地区，在胸腔积液细胞学检查中发现微丝蚴也是非常罕见的情况。与恶性胸腔积液相关的偶然发现微丝蚴的病例报道较少。但丝虫源性胸腔积液是极为罕见的表现。在此，我们报告一例胸腔积液细胞学检查中发现微丝蚴的典型病例。
