Magnified 500X, this photomicrograph revealed the presence of a Fasciolopsis buski trematode egg that was found in an unstained formalin-preserved stool sample. F. buski are the largest intestinal flukes found parasitizing human beings. These flukes inhabit Asia and the Indian subcontinent, especially in areas where humans raise pigs, and consume freshwater plants.Clinical Features:Most infections are light and asymptomatic. In heavier infections, symptoms include diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, ascites, anasarca and intestinal obstruction.Laboratory Diagnosis:Microscopic identification of eggs, or more rarely of the adult flukes, in the stool or vomitus is the basis of specific diagnosis. The eggs are indistinguishable from those of Fasciola hepatica.Created: 1973

Magnified 125X, this photomicrograph revealed the presence of two trematode eggs, a Fasciolopsis buski egg on the right, and an Echinostoma sp. egg seen of the left, which were found in an unstained formalin-preserved stool sample. Note how much larger the F. buski is compared to that of the Echinostoma sp. egg. F. buski trematodes are the largest intestinal flukes found parasitizing human beings. These flukes inhabit Asia and the Indian subcontinent, especially in areas where humans raise pigs, and consume freshwater plants.Created: 1973

Description: English: 130 to 150 micro m long and 60 to 90 micro m wide. Each adult worm can produce up to 25,000 eggs per day, and, in a light infection, up to 500,000 eggs per day can be deposited onto pasture by a single sheep. Date: 11 November 2014, 17:56:12. Source:
