Clinical Information

  • Infection with nematodes of the genus enterobius; e. Vermicularis, the pinworm of man, causes a crawling sensation and pruritus. This condition results in scratching the area, occasionally causing scarification.
  • Infection with nematodes of the superfamily oxyuroidea.
  • Pinworms are parasitic worms about the length of a staple that reside in the rectum and are the most common worm infection in the United States. These parasites enter the body when their eggs are swallowed. During the night, female pinworms exit the intestines through the anus to lay eggs on the surrounding skin, causing intense anal itching. While complications from pinworms are rare, the infection spreads easily among people, particularly school-age children and preschoolers. It’s important to note that pinworms are not transmitted by pets. In mild cases, treatment may not be necessary. However, if treatment is required, it typically involves medication for the infected individual and their family members due to the ease of transmission.
