ABSTRACT
Sparganosis is a parasite infestation caused by the larval stage of Spirometra erinacei. Ingestion of raw or undercooked flesh of numerous intermediate hosts results in human infection. Sparganum infestation of human body was reported over 120 cases including urogenital lesions in Korean literatures since 1924. But, no case of sparganosis in the spermatic cord was reported until now. We experienced a case of sparganosis in the spermatic cord.
