Strongyloidiasis (Threadworms) | Causes, Pathophysiology, Signs and Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment
Strongyloidiasis (also known as Threadworms) is a relatively underreported but prevalent parasitic infection that causes dermatological, gastrointestinal and respiratory symptoms. Individuals can become infected by walking on bare feet and becoming exposed to larvae in the sand or soil. Larvae penetrate into the skin and migrate to the small intestines, where they mature into adult forms and release eggs that mature into larvae that are then excreted into the patient’s stool that is then released into the environment. In this lesson, we discuss the full in-depth overview of the pathophysiology of this condition, including the signs and symptoms, how it’s diagnosed and how it’s treated.
