摘要: Background Toxocara canis is an intestinal nematode affecting dogs and cats, which causes human infection when embryonated eggs excreted in dog feces are ingested. Humans paratenic hosts. Although the larvae do not develop into adult worms body, they may migrate to various tissues organs where can survive for several years, giving rise clinical symptoms, present allergy-like form.
