Diphyllobothrium, Diplogonoporus and Spirometra
Original language description
Most of the developed countries today are generally considered ?dehelminthized, meaning that the prevalence (percentage of infected people) and medical impact of diseases caused by helminths, that is, flukes (Trematoda), tapeworms (Cestoda), parasitic roundworms (Nematoda), and spiny-headed worms (Acanthocephala), are negligible compared to other diseases. In contrast, helminthoses such as filariasis, schistosomiasis and infections with gastrointestinal nematodes, lung flukes, and many others representserious medical and socioeconomic problems in tropical countries. However, globalization of food trade, climate change, and altered eating habits have contributed to the emergence of new foodborne helminthoses and recrudescence of those considered to bedecreasingly important for human health. Among the so-called zoonoses, that is, diseases caused by parasites that can be transmitted between humans and animals, recent reemergence of human infections with fish tapeworms (Diphyllobothrium)
