Abstract
Se presentan dos pacientes de ambos sexos, raza blanca, de diez y dieciséis meses, respectivamente, procedentes de área rural en la provincia de Pinar del Río (Cuba), con parasitismo intestinal por Inermicapsifer madagascariensis (Inermicapsifer cubensis) diagnosticados en el Laboratorio de Microbiología del Hospital Pediátrico Provincial Docente "Pepe Portilla" en Pinar del Río. Ambos pacientes, con historia de expulsar parásitos por el ano, que no curaban con los tratamientos utilizados, asistieron espontáneamente al Hospital donde se efectuó el diagnóstico de Inermicapsiferiasis. Se realizó la observación macroscópica de las proglótides y se constató que sus características morfológicas son similares a las de un "grano de arroz". Para el examen microscópico con el fin de diferenciar si se trata de granos de arroz o proglótides grávidos, se comprimieron entre el portaobjeto y cubreobjeto dejando salir gran número de cápsulas oovíferas características. Los pacientes fueron remitidos a su Área de Salud para la imposición de tratamiento específico de esta parasitosis.
Two white patients, children of both sexes, 10 and 16 months old, respectively, coming from a rural area in Pinar del Rio province, and infested by Inermicapsifer madagascariensis (cubensis) were diagnosed in the Department of Microbiology at Pepe Portilla Teaching Pediatrics Hospital in Pinar del Rio province, Cuba. Both patients had history of expulsing parasites through the anus, being resistant to the previous treatments used before, patients attended to the hospital spontaneously where the diagnosis of Inermicapsiferiasis was performed. The macroscopic examination of the proglottides showed morphological characteristics similar to a "grain of rice" shaped worms. The microscopic examination was carried out in order to differentiate the grains of rice from the gravid proglottides, these were crashed between the slide and cover and a great number of capsules having the characteristic ovipherous were observed. Patients were referred to their Primary Health Care Area to undergo specific treatment of this parasitosis.
