TOXOPLASMOSIS
T. gondii bradyzoites and tachyzoites can affect other organs such as heart, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and placenta
Cytologic Features
Pap stain may demonstrate organism on FNA &/or epithelioid microgranulomas
Reactive lymphoid hyperplasia and tachyzoites within lymphocytes
ANCILLARY TESTS
Immunohistochemistry
Toxoplasma antibody: Stains organisms in tissue sections
Monocytoid B cells of reactive lymph node are CD20(+), CD5(-), CD23(-), Bcl-2(-), Bcl-6(-), and CD10(-)
DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
Non-B-Cell Hodgkin Lymphoma, Nodular Lymphocyte Predominant (LP)
LP cells are admixed with numerous small B lymphocytes, epithelioid histiocytes, and CD21(+) dendritic reticulum cells
Sinus Histiocytosis With Massive Lymphadenopathy
Histiocytes and emperipolesis
Capsular and pericapsular inflammation and fibrosis
CNS Lymphoma in HIV
Protozoan Parasitic Infections: Morphologic Diagnosis of Protozoa in Anatomic Pathology
Nearly 100% of affected patients have evidence of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), usually single lesion with solid enhancement
Toxoplasma usually presents as multiple lesions with ring or nodular enhancement
Cat Scratch Disease
History of sustaining a scratch or bite from a cat, and regional adenopathy proximal to site of inoculation
Stellate granulomata with central necrosis and positive serology for Bartonella

TERMINOLOGY
Synonyms
Hookworm disease, miner’s anemia, tunnel disease, brickmaker’s anemia, Egyptian chlorosis
Definitions
Latin: "Necare" (to kill) + "America" (Americans)
Greek: "Angkylos" (crooked) + "stoma" (mouth)
ETIOLOGY/PATHOGENESIS
Environmental Exposure
Hookworm filariform larvae directly penetrate skin in contact with ground or plants
Infectious Agents
Hookworms are nematodes 1 cm in length that clamp onto mucosa of small bowel and feed on human blood
Hookworm eggs (regardless of species) are very similar in appearance in stool
Necator americanus: New World hookworm
Males are 7-9 mm, females are 9-11 mm in length and produce ~ 10,000 eggs per day
Adult worms can live in human small bowel for up to 5 years
Ancylostoma spp: Old World hookworm
Males are 8-11 mm, females are 10-13 mm in length and produce ~ 30,000 eggs per day
Male posterior end contains a copulatory burst
Adult worms can live in human small bowel for up to 1 year
A section from duodenum with hookworm infection shows the worm , which was clamped to the mucosa for feeding, and inflamed, blunted villi in the small bowel. (Courtesy R. Cooke, MD.)
CLINICAL ISSUES
Epidemiology
Although worms have worldwide distribution, infection is strongly associated with poor sanitation, bare feet, and poverty
Major cause of anemia: 0.2 mL blood/worm/day are lost with infection
Results in stunted growth, milestone loss, comorbidities, and decreased productivity
Presentation
Mostly asymptomatic
Loeffler syndrome (larvae pass through lungs): Cough, and eosinophils in sputum
Acute infection of mature worms: Abdominal pain, melena, or rarely, blood per rectum
Chronic infection: Anemia, growth stunting, and mental milestone delay
Laboratory Tests
Stool examination for hookworm eggs &/or rhabditiform larvae is diagnostic modality of choice
Patients may show anemia on complete blood count but eosinophilia is uncommon
Treatment
Albendazole or mebendazole
Large effort to develop a vaccine is underway due to lack of efficacy of mass drug treatment in hookworm disease
Prognosis
Mortality is extremely rare and most patients recover fully with proper treatment
Reinfection will occur without exposure prevention
Chronic disease complications (such as stunted growth) may not revert with treatment

ANCYLOSTOMIASIS AND NECATORIASIS
Etiology
Filariform larvae directly penetrate skin
Nematodes of 1 cm clamp to small bowel mucosa, feed on human blood
Clinical Issues
Infection associated with poor sanitation, bare feet, and poverty
Loeffler syndrome: Cough, and eosinophils in sputum
Key Facts
Acute infection: Abdominal pain, melena, or rarely, blood per rectum
Chronic infection: Anemia, growth stunting, and mental milestone delay
Microscopic Pathology
Small bowel resections may incidentally demonstrate worms on tissue section, which are attached via cutting plates to mucosa surface
Helminthic Parasitic Infections: Nematodes
MACROSCOPIC FEATURES
Endoscopy/Small Bowel Gross Examination
Worms are large (size), easily visualized, attached to mucosa, and do not penetrate wall of small bowel
MICROSCOPIC PATHOLOGY
Histologic Features
Small bowel resections may demonstrate worms on tissue section, which are attached via cutting plates to mucosa surface
Within mouth parts, damaged mucosa should be present
May be limited mucosal inflammatory response to diffuse small bowel inflammation
DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
On Lung Biopsy or Sputum Sampling
Loeffler syndrome: Eosinophilic pneumonitis caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, hookworm, or Strongyloides stercoralis although migrating larvae may not be seen
Disseminated strongyloidiasis, caused by S. stercoralis: Hookworm adults and rhabditiform larvae do not leave gastrointestinal tract
On Small Bowel Biopsy/Resection
Strongyloidiasis: Small adult worms and larvae burrowed between intestinal epithelial cells/into lamina propria, eosinophils
On Stool Examination
Strongyloides rhabditiform larvae show a short buccal cavity and a primordial genitalia (absent in hookworm)
Other helminth infections: Hookworm eggs have clear outer shell and shrunken internal structure
"Found objects": Adult hookworms have distinctive mouth cutting plates and a copulatory burst (male) in tail
DIAGNOSTIC CHECKLIST
Clinically Relevant Pathologic Features
Clinically history should denote clear exposure history or signs of chronic infection
Pathologic Interpretation Pearls
Head of worm attached to damaged mucosa

TERMINOLOGY
Definitions
Greek: "Askaris" (intestinal worm)
Latin: "Lumbricus" (earthworm)
ETIOLOGY/PATHOGENESIS
Environmental Exposure
Ingestion of embryonated eggs originating from soil is primary form of transmission
Worldwide distribution, and more common in areas of poverty with increased soil exposure
Infectious Agents
Ascaris lumbricoides
Largest nematode (roundworm) infecting humans of helminths parasites
CLINICAL ISSUES
Presentation
Vast majority of infections are asymptomatic
Chronic infection can lead to malnutrition and stunted growth
Loeffler syndrome: Pulmonary alveolar space eosinophilia in response to larval passage
Large burden: Abdominal pain, swollen abdomen, intestinal obstruction, bowel infarction, and nausea/ vomiting
Adult worms pass through ampulla of Vater, become trapped in liver, causing right upper quadrant pain, transaminitis, cholestasis, and abscess formation
Laboratory Tests
Stool exam for ova and parasites is almost always positive if gravid female worms are in patient due to

large burden of eggs per day produced (200,000 per female)
Presence of only male worms will not produce positive stool exams
Presence of only female worms will produce unfertilized eggs at lower numbers than gravid females
Treatment
Gastrointestinal obstruction/infarction may require surgical decompression/resection
Liver abscess may require surgical drainage
Albendazole or mebendazole for intestinal infection
Prognosis
Most patients return to normal health after treatment
Obstruction may lead to infarction, sepsis, and death without treatment
Liver masses may progress to frank hepatitis or lead to scarring
MICROBIOLOGY
Parasite Characteristics
Large adult worms (15-30 cm male and 20-35 cm female) inhabiting small bowel
Secrete molecules to protect against immune clearance including Ascaris carboxypeptidase inhibitor (ACI)

HUMAN FILARIASIS
Etiology
Mosquito-borne disease
Brugia malayi
Brugia timori
Wuchereria bancrofti
Clinical Issues
120 million infected worldwide
1st acquired in childhood, parasite burden increases over time spent in endemic areas
Rarely seen in travelers spending short periods of time in endemic regions
Microscopic Pathology
Intact male and female adult filariae can be seen in lymphatics
Key Facts
Granulomatous reaction around dead and dying filariae
Polypoid endolymphangitis
Acute lymphangitis and chronic lymphatic dilatation and fibrosis
Eosinophilic lymphadenitis (Meyers-Kouwenaar syndrome)
Blood smear light microscopy can be used to differentiate species
Diagnostic Checklist
Blood is drawn for peripheral smear at night for maximum parasite yield
Helminthic Parasitic Infections: Nematodes
Mosquito not very effective at transmission; therefore, rarely seen in travelers spending short amounts of time in endemic regions
A leading cause of disfiguring morbidity worldwide
Mansonella species
> 100 million infected worldwide with gross underestimation due to asymptomatic/mild disease
Presentation
Wuchereria and Brugia
Majority are asymptomatic but may have subclinical lymphatic and renal disease
Acute phase
Fever
Lymphadenopathy (genital and axillary)
Orchitis/epididymitis
Lymphedema of limbs &/or genitals
Chronic phase
Irreversible lymphedema
Florid eosinophilia found in peripheral blood counts
Can present as tropical pulmonary eosinophilia secondary to inflammatory response to infection
Mansonella species
Majority are asymptomatic
M. perstans/M. ozzardi cause body cavity filariasis
Calabar-like swellings, eosinophilia, abdominal
pain, fever, headache, pruritus
M. streptocerca causes cutaneous nodules
Laboratory Tests
Peripheral blood smear
Identified Wuchereria and Brugia species in peripheral blood by microfilarial features
Eosinophilia may be present
Body fluid examination (pleural fluid)
Identified M. perstans or M. ozzardi species by microfilarial features
Treatment
Diethylcarbamazine (DEC)
Contraindicated in patients with concomitant loiasis
Albendazole
Ivermectin
Doxycycline
Surgical excision of hydroceles may be an option in some cases
Prognosis
Chronic lymphedema is irreversible
Good prognosis if recognized and treated early
Complications
Secondary bacterial infection can be common complication and care should be taken to hygienically maintain affected areas
IMAGE FINDINGS
Ultrasonographic Findings
Testicular ultrasound may show movement of echogenic particles, classically termed "filarial dance"
In patients with travel to endemic areas, may be suggestive of filarial infection due to obstruction
In patients with no exposure, may represent obstruction for other reasons (post vasectomy)
MICROBIOLOGY
Parasite Features
Humans are the only vertebrate host of W. bancrofti
B. malayi can infect monkeys and felines, but humans are most common vertebrate host
M. perstans has only a human reservoir while M. streptocerca has animal reservoirs
Life cycle has 5 larval stages in vertebrate host and arthropod vector
3rd stage is transmitted to vertebrate host from mosquitoes/midges
Larvae enter circulation via bite wound and
migrate to host lymphatics
Over 6-12 months, mature worms develop (females: 8-10 cm; males: 1/3 that size)
