In a trial to throw some light on the present status of Filariasis in Giza Governorate, both human and mosquitoes were surveyed in two endemic areas: Kafr-Ghataty and Azizya. In Kafr-Ghataty the clinical cases detected were very rare (0.77%), while no microfilaraemic cases were obtained. The situation was different in Azizya village, where no clinical cases were detected but microfilaraemic cases were relatively higher (8%). The results of the larval survey, carried out only in Kafr-Ghataty, showed that Culex pipiens larvae were predominant (99.57%). They were found in all the breeding places specially canals and seepages, while Theobaldia longiareolata larvae were rare (0.43%) and present only in wells and cesspits. Regarding the adult mosquitoes survey, Culex pipiens was the only species detected in both areas. The results of dissection of adult female mosquitoes showed that individual dissection failed to detect infection among mosquitoes, in contrast to mass dissection which gave positive results (0.27% in Kafr-Ghataty and 2.2% in Azizya). It was also found that infective mosquitoes were 0% in Kafr-Ghataty and 1.1% in Azizya.
为了了解吉萨省丝虫病的现状，在两个流行地区卡夫尔 - 加塔蒂和阿齐兹亚对人类和蚊子进行了调查。在卡夫尔 - 加塔蒂，检测到的临床病例非常罕见（0.77%），而未发现微丝蚴血症病例。阿齐兹亚村的情况不同，那里未检测到临床病例，但微丝蚴血症病例相对较多（8%）。仅在卡夫尔 - 加塔蒂进行的幼虫调查结果显示，致倦库蚊幼虫占主导（99.57%）。它们在所有滋生地都有发现，特别是运河和渗水处，而长须按蚊幼虫很少见（0.43%），仅存在于水井和污水坑中。关于成蚊调查，两个地区检测到的唯一蚊种都是致倦库蚊。对成年雌蚊的解剖结果表明，个体解剖未在蚊子中检测到感染，而群体解剖则得到了阳性结果（卡夫尔 - 加塔蒂为0.27%，阿齐兹亚为2.2%）。还发现，感染性蚊子在卡夫尔 - 加塔蒂为0%，在阿齐兹亚为1.1%。
