Wojciech Płonka

Abstract

In 1998, 603 intestinal cestode cases were registered in Poland. Among them 516 were caused by T. saginata, 5 by T. solium, 59 by Taenia sp., 2 by Hymenolepis nana and 1 by D. latum. Moreover, 31 cases of larval cestode infections were also registered. Three of them were caused by larvae of T. solium and the remaining ones by E. granulosus. The obtained results confirmed the decreasing frequency of infections with intestinal cestodes in Poland.
