Abstract
In developing nations, lymphatic filariasis is a significant public health concern. Wuchereria bancrofti species, which are morphologically recognised as sheathed parasites with a tail tip free of nuclei, are responsible for almost 90% of the cases in India. Microfilariae have been found in a wide range of other body fluids as well as urine samples from patients with chylous and achylous hematuria. We report a case of microfilariasis in urine cytology. This study aims to raise awareness of the possibility of filariasis in bodily fluids and aspirates, particularly in areas where it is endemic. Identification results in a comprehensive diagnostic and treatment plan for the patient.
