Abstract |
"This chapter considers diseases of neuro-ophthalmologic significance produced by helminths. Helminths, or worms, are unique among the organisms that infect humans because of their size, their prevalence, the complexity of their life cycles and migrations within the host, their ability to induce eosinophilia, and especially because of the inability of most helminths toundergo direct replication in the definitive host (1)." |
