Resumo: | Cutaneous larva migrans (CML) is a dermatozoonosis characterized by a rash of erythematous lesions, usually prominent, papulo-vesiculous, linear or serpiginous, and most often pruritic. It is caused by penetration and intraepidermal migration of three possible species of nematode larvae. The highest rates of transmission occur in tropical coastal regions, where larvae can migrate freely in sandy soils and where hot temperatures and humidity are ideal for their viability. A case of a 51-year-old male patient who developed a pruritic skin rash on the back, flank, iliac fossa and lower limb on the right is reported. The injuries appeared about seven days after the practice of sport and leisure on turf field. After reviewing the scientific literature, we analyzed the epidemiological, parasitological, clinical, laboratory and therapeutic aspects inherent to the topic of cutaneous larva migrans. It is a common dermatological disease in tropical and subtropical countries, being very important its prompt recognition and therapeutic management for rapid cure with low morbidity. |

É causada pela penetração e migração intraepidérmica de três possíveis espécies de larvas de nematóides. Os maiores índices de transmissão ocorrem nas regiões tropicais costeiras, onde as larvas podem migrar livremente em solos arenosos e onde, além disso, a temperatura quente e a humidade são ideais para a sua viabilidade. Relata-se o caso de um paciente do sexo masculino, de 51 anos, leucodérmico que desenvolveu uma dermatose pruriginosa, extensa, envolvendo dorso, flanco, fossa ilíaca e membro inferior, à direita. As lesões surgiram cerca de sete dias após a prática de desporto e lazer em terreno relvado. Após revisão da literatura científica, analisamos os aspectos epidemiológicos, parasitológicos, clínicos, laboratoriais e terapêuticos inerentes ao tema larva migrans cutânea é uma afecção dermatológica comum em países tropicais e subtropicais, sendo de suma importância o seu pronto reconhecimento e manejo terapêutico para uma cura rápida com baixo grau de morbidade.Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia2019-07-12T00:00:00Zjournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.77.2.1058oai:ojs.revista.spdv.com.pt:article/1058Journal of the Portuguese Society of Dermatology and Venereology; Vol 77 No 2 (2019): April / June; 161-164Revista da Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia; v. 77 n. 2 (2019): Abril / Junho; 161-1642182-24092182-2395reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revista.spdv.com.pt/index.php/spdv/article/view/1058https://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.77.2.1058https://revista.spdv.com.pt/index.php/spdv/article/view/1058/781Rodrigues, Felipe TavaresAziz Silva, Patrícia GomesD´Acri, Antônio MacedoMartins, Carlos Joséinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-10-06T12:35:11ZPortal AgregadorONG |
