1 Gut parasites in general practice A biased account Dr. Samson Wong Department of Microbiology The University of Hong Kong
2 Classification of parasites Protozoa Helminths Arthropods Nematodes (roundworms) Trematodes (flukes) Cestodes (tapeworms) Insects Arachnids Blood and tissue Luminal
3 Why do we need to know parasites? Clinical significance. Public health significance. Global significance. International travel. Leisure Work Missionary Immunocompromised hosts.
4 Clinical suspicion Clinical signs and symptoms. Travel history. Exposure history. e.g. arthropod bites, food and drinks, transfusion, animal contact. Predisposing factors. e.g. HIV infection, immunosuppressive therapy. Unexpected histological findings.
5 Diagnosis With few exceptions, a competent laboratory service is needed to confirm the diagnosis. Macroscopic examination Microscopic examination Serology Culture Nucleic acid amplification
6 Transmission of parasitic infections Environment Host 1 Host 2 Intermediate hosts / vector ( 1) Physical Socio-economic, cultural Biological

10 Cyclospora 1 (0.4%) Sarcoptes scabiei 57 (23.5%) Plasmodium falciparum 1 (0.4%) Clonorchis sinensis 156 (64.5%) Adult worm 2 Ova 154 Entamoeba histolytica 1 (0.4%) Trichuris trichiura 1 (0.4%) Enterobius vermicularis 2 (0.8%) Queen Mary Hospital (Jan May 2003) Ascaris lumbricoides 6 (2.5%) Adult worm 5 Ova 1 Giardia lamblia 7 (2.9%) Strongyloides stercoralis 10 (4.1%) Positive: 242 Gut: 76.0%
11 Temporal trend of common gut parasites, Queen Mary Hospital Total number Number positive % 23.7% 21.9% 23.2% 5.5% Clonorchis sinensis % 55.0% 58.0% 63.4% 64.5% Ascaris lumbricoides % 22.4% 27.2% 16.7% 2.5% Trichuris trichiura % 19.4% 13.2% 16.1% 0.4% Hookworms % 1.8% 0.8% 2.3% 0% Strongyloides stercoralis % 0.5% 0.4% 0.9% 4.1% Enterobius vermicularis % 0.1% 0% 0.2% 0.8%
12 % of all positive identifications 70 Temporal trend of common gut parasites, Queen Mary Hospital Clonorchis sinensis Ascaris lumbricoides Trichuris trichiura Hookworms Strongyloides stercoralis Enterobius vermicularis
13 In the hospital setting, We are seeing fewer (common) parasitic infections. Clonorchis sinensis is still the commonest. Marked decreases in prevalence of geohelminths: Ascaris lumbricoides Trichuris trichiura Hookworms Still have ubiquitous parasites like Enterobius vermicularis. Marked increase in strongyloidiasis.
