Case 4
Taenia saginata
أولا ال source اللى جبنا منه ال cases قال انها saginata
ولكن طبعا مش دا السبب اننا نقول انها كده فعلا
لو رجعتم للشرح فى المقارنة بين T. saginata وال T. solium
فى فرق فى عدد ال lateral branches in uterus
فى ال T. saginata من 15 - 30
و فى ال T. solium من 7 - 12
فى ال case قال
Gravid segments were also detected in the stool specimens, each contained 15-20 lateral uterine branches, on either side, when stained with an Indian ink.
تمام كده ؟؟
كمان لو رجعنا لموقع كبير ومهم جدا زى ال emedicine هنلاقى الآتى
Laboratory Studies
Examine 3 consecutive stool samples (direct and concentrated stool preparations) from patients and contacts
Determination of species on the basis of ova examination is difficult because the eggs of
T solium and
T saginata are identical
Examining the gravid proglottids helps identify the species; count the main uterine branches after injection with India ink (ie, 7-13 branches for
T solium, 15-20 for
T saginata)i
Examining the scolex helps differentiate the species because a
T solium scolex has 4 suckers and an armed rostellum

و لو رجعنا لل wikipedia
It is notoriously difficult to differentiate the
species from other species of
Taenia such as
T. solium and
T. asiatica because of their close
morphological resemblance, and their eggs are more or less exactly identical.
Identification often requires histological observation of the
uterine branches and PCR detection of ribosomal 5.8S gene. observation of the
[4] T. saginata’s
uterus stems out from its center forming 12 to 20 branches, but in contrast to its closely related
Taenia species, the branches are much less in number and comparatively thicker

آخر حاجة بالنسبة لل
eosinophilia أيضا من ال emedicine
وال paragraph دا بيتكلم عن ال Taenia عامة
The most common serious complication of adult tapeworm infection is
appendicitis. Other reported complications include obstruction of bile ducts, pancreatic duct and tapeworm growth in ectopic locations (eg, middle ear, adenoid tissue, uterine cavity). A mild eosinophilia of 5-15% may occur in 5-45% of patients; higher levels are rare
