Abstract
In the Russian Federation, cases of infection with trichinosis in a population of people or animals are annually recorded. Trichinosis is intestinal and tissue helminthiasis of humans and a number of mammals, caused all over the world by nematodes. A person becomes infected with the parasite by eating meat containing live encapsulated Trichinella larvae. Mating takes place in the gastrointestinal tract, fertilized females are introduced into the intestinal mucosa with their anterior thinned ends. The clinical picture of trichinosis is accompanied by the development of myositis, degeneration of muscle fibers, and multiple edema. Deaths are not uncommon due to necrotic ulcerative lesions of the intestine and internal bleeding.
