Visceral larva m3
- Visceral larva migrans (VLM) is a human infection with certain parasites found in the intestines of dogs and cats. (medlineplus.gov)
- Visceral larva migrans and other uncommon helminth infections. (medlineplus.gov)
- The disease (toxocariasis) caused by migrating T. canis larvae results in two syndromes: visceral larva migrans and ocular larva migrans. (wikipedia.org)
Parasite1
- Another possible route of infection is the ingestion of paratenic hosts that contain encysted larvae from egg consumption, allowing the parasite to escape from the paratenic host and grow to adulthood within the small intestine of its definitive host, the dog. (wikipedia.org)
Infection1
- Once infected, a female dog will usually harbor sufficient larvae to subsequently infect all of her litters, even if she never again encounters an infection. (wikipedia.org)

Liver3
- Hepatic visceral larva migrans, a resilient entity on imaging: Experience from a tertiary liver center. (medscape.com)
- In dogs under 3 months of age, the larvae hatch in the small intestine, get into the bloodstream, migrate through the liver, and enter the lungs. (wikipedia.org)
- After parturition, the larvae migrate from the pup's liver to the lungs to undergo tracheal migration. (wikipedia.org)
