Entamoeba histolytica--- Acquired by consumption of contaminated food or water; occurs worldwide especially where there is poor sanitation. Suspect in person with hepatic amebiasis with an elevated right hemidiaphragm and "anchovy paste" expectorate due to hepatobronchial fistula. Pleural effusion is a common finding with hepatic abscess and may be sterile (inflammatory reaction) or represent an empyema
.Ascaris lumbricoides --- Acquired by consumption of contaminated food or water; occurs worldwide especially where there is poor sanitation. Suspect with fever, cough, expectoration, eosinophilia, patchy alveolar exudates on CXR or chest CT that clear within 10 days; confirmed larvae in sputum +/- eggs in stool.
Strongyloides stercoralis --- Can be seen in an immunocompetent person as well as immunocompromised (more severe illness). Suspect with suspect exposure and fever, eosinophilia (may be absent in immunocompromised person), bronchospasm or bronchitis, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Ill-defined, patchy, migratory airspace consolidation that resolves in 7-10 days. Definitive diagnosis by finding larvae in sputum. Hyperinfection can lead to overwhelming diseases with ARDS.
Echinococcus granulosus --- Occurs wherever there are canines. Long incubation period; may be asymptomatic for years. Hydatid cysts found in liver>lung>other organs. Lung disease causes cough, hemoptysis, pneumothorax, lung abscess, bilioptysis, parasite pulmonary embolism. Definitive diagnosis is made by histopathology. Pre-surgical ELISA and abdominal ultrasound are useful. Consult with infectious disease expert and surgeon strongly advised.
E. multilocularis --- Exposure history to canines in Mediterranean, Eastern Europe, Turkey, China, South America, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Japan, Canada, Alaska. Very long incubation of 5-15 years. Liver commonly involved. Lung ds. causes cough, fatigue, weight loss, hemoptysis, tumor-like invasion of chest wall, ""metastases."" Dx by histopathology or serology (available from CDC) plus characteristic appearance on imaging. Consult with infectious disease expert and surgeon strongly advised.
Paragonimus westermani --- Exposure in Southeast Asia, Asia, Latin America (primarily Peru), Africa (primarily Nigeria). Lung is the target of this fluke. Fever, chest pain, chronic cough, hemoptysis with eggs found in the sputum, feces and pleural fluid. Often mistaken for TB on CXR. Alert laboratory as acid fast staining for TB will destroy eggs in sputum or pleural fluid."
