ABSTRACT

Fasciolosis is a worldwide parasitic disease in human and domestic animals. The causative agents of fasciolosis are Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica but, in Cuba, only F. hepatica has been notified. As others neglected diseases, F. hepatica is more common in people living in rural areas where infected animals, intermediate hosts and susceptible hosts coexist. We describe the clinical features of a case that could contribute to the process of continuing medical education of health professionals in our geographic area.


Fasciolosis es una enfermedad parasitaria de humanos y diferentes animales. Sus agentes causales son Fasciola hepatica y Fasciola gigantica; sin embargo, en Cuba, solo la primera de esas especies ha sido notificada. Como otras enfermedades incorporadas en el grupo de las olvidadas o desatendidas, fasciolosis, es más frecuente en personas que viven en áreas rurales donde coexisten animales infectados, hospederos intermediarios y hospederos susceptibles. Se exponen las características de un caso que pudiera contribuir en el proceso de educación continuada de los profesionales de la salud en nuestra área geográfica.

ABSTRACT

El término síndrome X se emplea habitualmente para definir a un grupo de pacientes que presentan dolor torácico característico, depresión del segmento ST durante el esfuerzo y arterias coronarias angiográficamente normales. Clínicamente cursa con dolor anginoso típico no siempre relacionado con el esfuerzo y con frecuencia prolongado lo que dificulta su diagnóstico. Existe actualmente una gran diversidad de complementarios, unos dirigidos a las causas conocidas y otros de muy diversa índole dirigidos al diagnóstico de la entidad, destacándose dentro de ellos los estudios de imágenes y los de Medicina Nuclear.


The term X syndrome is habitually used to define a group of patients presenting characteristic thoracic pain, depression of the ST segment during the effort and coronary arteries angiographically normal. Clinically it presents with a typical angina's pain not always related with the effort and frequently prolonged, making it difficult the diagnosis. There is a great diversity of complementary analysis and tests, some directed to the already known causes, and other directed to the diagnosis of the entity, being the imagine study and the studies of nuclear medicine the most outstanding.
