Cases Of Gastric Anisakiasis Research Articles

Case of gastric anisakiasis with no symptoms.

We present a unique image from a case of anisakiasis that was detected incidentally in an elderly man during surveillance esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Given the popularity of sushi and sashimi throughout the world, we believe that our observations will raise awareness about the risk of Anisakis contamination in seafood.

A case of human infection with Anisakis simplex in Taiwan

A case of gastric anisakiasis in a 69-year-old man is presented. He had eaten assorted sashimi in a local Japanese restaurant 3 days before a scheduled esophagogastroduodenoscopy. A live round worm was noted in the stomach, with 1 end embedded in the gastric wall during endoscopic examination; it was retrieved with forceps (A, B). No symptom or sign was noted before or after the endoscopy. The parasite was identified as Anisakis simplex through its morphologic features (C) and polymerase chain reaction.

Anisakis pegreffi Etiological Agent of Gastric Infections in Two Italian Women

Two cases of gastric anisakiasis have been documented in two Italian women who had consumed raw anchovies (Engraulis encrasicolus). The first patient was a 49-year-old woman presenting with epigastric pain and bloody vomiting after ingestion of marinated (vinegar) raw anchovies. During the esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGDS) a white color worm was detected and extracted from cardia by means of biopsy forceps. The second patient was a 59-year-old woman with irritable bowel syndrome and gastritis, who underwent to periodical EGDSs. In the course of the last EGDS, a white color round worm on antrum and a small polyp on the fundus of the stomach were observed. The two nematodes have been identified as L3 larvae of the genus Anisakis by a light microscope, and as Anisakis pegreffi by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. The molecular identification of the etiological agent at the species level allows to identify what Anisakidae species play a zoonotic role and which are the fish host species.
