Overview

The majority of patients with ancylostomiasis are asymptomatic. Common symptoms of ancylostomiasis include: anorexia, flatulence, diarrhea, weight loss, pallor, dyspnea, weakness, generalized edema, melena, hematemesis, dizziness, syncope, cough, sneezing, hemoptysis, nausea, vomiting, pharyngeal irritation, itchy, erythematous, serpiginous skin lesions.

History and Symptoms

The majority of patients with ancylostomiasis are asymptomatic. The clinical presentation depends on the phase of the parasite and the intensity of the infection.^[1]

History

Patients with ancylostomiasis may have a positive history of: ^[2] ^[1]

Cutaneous infection presents with serpiginous, erythematous, and palpable plaque on the skin.
Respiratory infection presents shortness of breath.
Gastrointestinal findings such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, and also failure to thrive in the case of children due to malabsorption and malnutrition.

Symptoms

Common symptoms of ancylostomiasis during acute phase in intestine include:^[3] ^[4] ^[1] ^[5]

Chronic severe intestinal infection include:

Symptoms during the pulmonary stage and peroral infection includes:

Infection with cutaneous larva migrans include:

Itchy, erythematous, serpiginous skin lesions.

-by invasion of hookworms from other animals such as cats and dogs. Because

-through the skin until killed by the host's inflammatory response. This causes
