lüll North American paragonimiasis (Caused by Paragonimus kellicotti) in the context of global paragonimiasis Procop GWClin Microbiol Rev 2009[Jul]; 22 (3): 415-46Paragonimus species are highly evolved parasites with a complex life cycle that involves at least three different hosts, i.e., snails, crustaceans, and mammals. The adult forms of Paragonimus species reside and mate in the lungs of a variety of permissive mammalian hosts, including humans. Although human paragonimiasis is uncommonly encountered in North America, both autochthonous and imported disease may be encountered. Paragonimus kellicotti, the species endemic to North America, is a well-known pathogen in wild and domestic animals. Five patients with North American paragonimiasis have been reported in the recent medical literature. The biologic, clinical, radiologic, and laboratory features of paragonimiasis are reviewed, with emphasis on North American paragonimiasis whenever possible.|Animals[MESH]|Emigration and Immigration[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Incidence[MESH]|North America/epidemiology[MESH]|Paragonimiasis/diagnosis/drug therapy/*epidemiology/*parasitology[MESH]|Paragonimus/*isolation & purification[MESH]|Travel[MESH] |
