Filariasis
DESCRIPTION Filariasis is a chronic disease that causes a number of long term problems like, hydrocele (accumulation of fluid), elephantiasis of the leg, elephantiasis of the scrotum, lymphedema (swelling of subcutaneous tissues) and chyluria (passing of chyle -a turbid white/yellow fluid- in urine). The clinical manifestations of filariasis develop very slowly. The nature and severity of the manifestations differ in persons who belong to endemic areas from those in persons who have recently travelled to such an area.

Filariasis is caused by filarial worms. In all cases, a mosquito first bites an infected individual then bites another uninfected individual, transferring some of the worm larvae to the new host. Several different types of worms can be responsible for each type of filariasis, but the most common species include the following: Wucheria bancrofti, Brugia malayi (lymphatic filariasis), Onchocerca volvulus, Loa loa, Mansonella streptocerca, Dracunculus medinensis (subcutaneous filariasis), Mansonella pustans, and Mansonella ozzardi (serous cavity filariasis).
The two most common types of the disease are Bancroftian and Malayan filariasis, both forms of lymphatic filariasis.
SYNONYMS  
  • Bancroftian filariasis
  • Filarial elephantiasis
  • Filariasis Malayi
  • Malayi tropical eosinphilia
  • Wuchereriasis
SYMPTOMS The symptoms that occur in persons affected by filariasis are:
  • Fever with chills,
  • Swelling in the area where the adult worms are present
  • Enlargement of the lymph nodes
  • Recurrent episodes of fever with chills can occur
  • Inflammatory changes develop in the lymphatics and in the lymph nodes. (This is usually associated with fever and local swelling.)
  • The inflammation in the lymphatics spreads to the neighbouring areas and also spreads in a reverse direction. The lymphatics can become thickened and inflamed. The veins in the region can get involved and this results in inflammatory changes in them.
The changes in the lymphatics can involve the upper and the lower extremities. If lymphatic damage leads onto lymphatic obstruction it causes pitting edema. Thickening of the subcutaneous tissues can progress to hyperplasia and ultimately to elephantiasis of the involved limb. Infected males develop disease in the scrotum which may cause hydrocele which in advanced stages may leads to elephantiasis of the scrotum.
