Filariasis

Abstract

Introducción: la filariasis es una parasitosis importada producida por nemátodos (gusanos redondos) hemáticos de la familia Filariidae. Existen alrededor de 200 tipos de filarias parásitas pero solo unas pocas parasitan al hombre. Caso clínico: se presentó el caso de un paciente, extranjero, masculino, de 30 años de edad, procedente de Guinea, que acudió a la consulta de Oftalmología del Cuerpo de Guardia del Hospital General Docente "Abel Santamaría Cuadrado" de Pinar del Río, con sensación de cuerpo extraño en ambos ojos y sin otra sintomatología. Después de un examen oftalmológico minucioso se hace el diagnóstico presuntivo de una filariasis ocular. Conclusiones: la filariasis es una de las enfermedades exóticas en Cuba. Se hace necesario elevar la vigilancia epidemiológica de dichas enfermedades, debido a la recurrencia de las visitas de personas procedentes de áreas endémicas. De vital importancia resulta la adecuada evaluación de estos pacientes, para lograr la identificación temprana y aplicar métodos oportunos de tratamiento.
