Compte rendu The canine hookworm < em > Ancylostoma caninum: < /em > A novel threat for anthelmintic resistance in Canada
Can Vet J. 2023 Apr;64(4):372-378.ABSTRACTThe canine hookworm Ancylostoma caninum is one of the most prevalent parasitic nematodes in dogs worldwide and has the potential for zoonotic transmission to humans, including the development of cutaneous larva migrans. Recent confirmation of anthelmintic resistance (AR) in A. caninum to several anthelmintic classes, mainly in the USA, indicates the potential for this scenario in Canada. We consider various factors that may lead to resistant isolates in Canada, such as the widespread use of antiparasitic drugs without the assessment of efficacy; increased A. caninum prevalence in v...

Present and future: infectious tropical travel rashes and the impact of climate change
In this article, we discuss pertinent cutaneous findings with which patients may present after travel to tropical destinations. We address arthropod-borne infectious diseases such as cutaneous leishmaniasis, Chagas disease, cutaneous larva migrans, and myiasis. We discuss other relevant diseases with cutaneous signs such as monkey pox and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. We provide clinicians with information regarding the background, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of these tropical rashes. (Source: Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology)

Cutaneous larva migrans
A 41-year-old man with a background history of peptic ulcer disease was admitted with acute gastroenteritis. This settled with intravenous fluid and supportive treatment. Admission blood investigations showed mild eosinophilia (28% and 3.3 × 109/ml absolute count). He reported a history of pruritus over the lower and inner thighs. On examination, he had two healing wounds over the posterior aspect of the right thigh and one on the medial aspect of the right thigh (Figure 1a and b). Interestingly, there were also serpiginous scabs leading to two of the lesions. On inquiry, he frequently enters the jungles and had last en...

Occupational risk of cutaneous larva migrans: A case report and a systematic literature review
by Angela Stufano, Caterina Foti, Piero Lovreglio, Paolo Romita, Aurora De Marco, Riccardo Paolo Lia, Domenico Otranto, Roberta Iatta
Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) is a parasitic zoonosis of warm tropical and subtropical areas, although autochthonous cases have been increasingly reported in Western European countries. Data on the prevalence of CLM as an occupational disease in workers exposed to potentially contaminated soil or in close contact with dogs and cats are scant. Herein, we report an autochthonous case of CLM in a dog breeder from southern Italy (Apulia region), along with a systematic literature review describ...
