Mammomonogamus

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Mammomonogamus is a genus of parasitic nematode of the family Syngamidae that parasitises the respiratory tract of cattle, sheep, goats, deer, cats, orangutans, and elephants. The nematode can also infect humans and cause the disease called Mammomonogamiasis. There are several known species that fall under the Mammomonogamus genus, but the most common species found to infest humans is Mammomonogamus laryngeus. Infection in humans is very rare with only about 100 reported cases worldwide and assumed to be largely accidental. Cases have been reported from the Caribbean, China, Korea, Thailand, and Philippines. The worm usually inhabits the upper-respiratory region in the trachea, bronchus, or larynx and can elicit chronic coughing and asthma-like symptoms. One interesting case from Thailand reported finding worms in the patient\'s duodenum, suggesting that M. laryngeus can also be a gastrointestinal parasite. More research is needed because the life cycle is not completely known. Diagnosis is made by recovering the worms on bronchoscopy or oesophagogastroduodenoscopy. Due to the scant amount of information available on this parasite in literature, increased awareness is necessary especially in endemic areas near M. laryngeus\' reservoir hosts in order to for clinicians, the local population in the endemic area, and traveling tourists to effectively recognize and prevent against Mammomonogamiasis.
