| Popis: | Cutaneous larva migrans is a clinical term that designates a dermal eruption of lineal and serpigi nous character, caused by larvas of nematelmintos worms. Some authors make it synonymous of serpi ginous eruption (creeping eruption).

It is observed, mainly, in central and South America, and in the southern states of United Sta tes. Given the high incidence of leisure trips in our e n v i ronment, the frequency of this parasitic disease has been increased in our consultations and since its diagnosis is fundamentally clinical, it is advisa ble its knowledge in Primary Health Care. |
