  3. Objectives 1/ Know of Enterobius vermicularis classification and Geographical distribution. 2/ Study of Enterobius vermicularis External Morphology , Habitat, Life cycle, Mode of Transmission, Pathogenicity. 3/ Show Symptoms of Enterobiasis disease. 4/ Show Laboratory diagnosis of Enterobius vermicularis. 5/ Know Treatment and prevention.

  4. Classification • المملكة الحيوانية Kingdom: Animal • شعبة الديدان الاسطوانية Phylum: Nematoda • طائفة ذوات المستقبلات الكيميائية Class: Phasmidae • عائلة الأوكسيريدي Family: Oxyuridae

  7. Life cycle 1-Infection occurs when embryonated eggs are ingested from the environment, with food or by hand to mouth contact. 2- . The embryonic larvae hatch in the duodenum. 3- worms descend into lower cecum and colon and live there for 7 to 8 weeks.

  8. دورة الحياة:

  9. Life cycle • 4- The gravid females, containing more than 10,000 eggs migrate, at night, to the perianal region and deposit their eggs there. • 5- Eggs mature in an oxygenated and are infectious 3 to 4 hours later. • 6- . Man-to-man and auto infection are common Man is the only host.

  12. Epidemiology 1-Enterobiasis is by far the commonest helminthic infection in the US (18 million cases at any given time). 2- The worldwide infection is about 210 million. 3- It is an urban disease of children in crowded environment (schools, day care centers, etc.). Adults may get it from their children.

  13. Diagnosis Diagnosis is made by finding the adult worm or eggs in the perianal area, particularly at night. Scotch tape or a pinworm paddle is used to obtain eggs.

  14. Treatment and Prevention 1-Two doses (10 mg/kg; maximum of 1g each) of PyrentalPamoate two weeks apart gives a very high cure rate. 2- Mebendazole is an alternative. 3- The whole family should be treated, to avoid re-infection. Bedding and underclothing must be sanitized between the two treatment doses. 4- Personal cleanliness provides the most effective in prevention.
