The authors present the first human case of Clinostomum pharyngitis in Taegu, Korea. The patient was a 56-year old male who visited an otolaryngology clinic due to foreign body sensation and pain of the pharyngeal region for 3-4 days. He used to eat raw fresh-water fish. Otolaryngological examinations revealed a living worm adhered to the right posterior pharyngeal wall. The worm removed was identified as C. complanatum after morphological observations. It is likely that more attention should be paid to eating raw fresh-water fish in Korea with regards to Clinostomum pharyngitis.
作者报告了韩国大邱首例人体斜睾吸虫咽炎病例。患者为一名56岁男性，因咽部异物感和疼痛3 - 4天就诊于耳鼻喉科诊所。他过去常食用生淡水鱼。耳鼻喉科检查发现一条活虫附着于右侧咽后壁。经形态学观察，取出的虫体被鉴定为扁形斜睾吸虫。在韩国，就斜睾吸虫咽炎而言，可能应更加关注食用生淡水鱼的问题。
