[The first case of diagnosis of dirofilariasis from the microfilariae detected in the human subcutaneous tumor punctate].
The paper describes the first case of diagnosis of dirofilariasis from the microfilariae detected in the subcutaneous tumor punctate from a person who has the clinical manifestations of D. repens invasion and resides in the Saratov Region that is endemic in dirofilariasis. The fact of detection of microfilariae in the man undergone invasion is assessed not only as the first case in the lifetime diagnosis of the first case of diagnosis of subcutaneous dirofilariasis, but also as the first case of verification of that a female can achieve sexual maturity in the organism of an accidental host and its impregnation if there are even single specimens of both sexes, which is characteristic in human invasiveness. On this basis, the authors consider it wrong to refer this helminthiasis to as a group of diseases defined as "Larva migrans cutaneous" since this is inconsistent with the biology of a causative agent that accomplishes migration at the adult stage in the host's organism and does not orient a physician to establish a correct clinical and parasitological diagnosis.
