Can We See Microfilaria On Ultrasound?: A Real-Time Ultrasound And Wet Smear Demonstration Of Dancing Microfilaria

Abstract

A case with the filaria dance sign (FDS) in the epididymal region is described. Aspiration of fluid from an epididymal cystic lesion demonstrated motile microfilaria. We explore the possibility that the dancing particles described by the FDS are microfilaria and not the adult worm as previously described.
