Abstract
Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) is an infestation caused by penetration and migration in the epidermis of larvae of nematodes. Ancylostoma braziliense and Ancylostoma caninum are the species most frequently involved. CLM is characterized by slightly raised and erythematous tracks, very often accompanied by pruritus. CLM can sometimes heal spontaneously; on the other hand, a clinical variety characterized by a very long clinical course has been described. Most used therapies are cryotherapy, topical thiabendazole and oral albendazole and ivermectin.
