| strongyloidiasis |
infection of humans or domestic animals with Strongyloides stercoralis. The female worm and her larvae inhabit the mucosa and submucosa of the small intestine (see intestinal s.), and the larvae expelled in the feces develop in the soil and can penetrate skin on contact. They later are carried in the bloodstream to the lungs (see pulmonary s.), and from there they travel to the intestine via the trachea and esophagus. Massive infections are occasionally seen in immunocompromised patients and those treated with corticosteroids or certain other agents. An endogenous cycle of development may occur, with development of the larvae to the infectious stage prior to their leaving the body, allowing infections to persist for many years.
