More commonly seen in South America and the tropics. (27 Sep 1997) |
| South American trypanosomiasis | Trypanosomiasis caused by Trypanosoma (or Schizotrypanum) cruzi and transmitted by certain species of reduviid (triatomine) bugs. In its acute form, it is seen most frequently in young children, with swelling of the skin at the site of entry, most often the face, and regional lymph node enlargement; in its chronic form it can assume several aspects, commonly cardiomyopathy, but megacolon and megaesophagus also occur; natural reservoirs include dogs, armadillos, rodents, and other domestic, domiciliated, and wild mammals. Synonym: Chagas' disease, Chagas-Cruz disease, Cruz trypanosomiasis. (05 Mar 2000) |
