Part Description

LP70581-1   Loa loa
Loa loa is the filarial nematode (roundworm) species that causes Loa loa filariasis. It is commonly known as the "eye worm". Its geographic distribution includes Africa and Sudan.

L. loa is one of four parasitic filarial nematodes that cause subcutaneous filariasis in humans. The three other filarial nematodes are Mansonella streptocerca, Onchocerca volvulus (causes river blindness), and Dracunculus medinensis (guinea worm).

Maturing larvae and adults of the "eye worm" occupy the subcutaneous layer of the skin - the fat layer - of humans, causing disease. The young larvae develop in horseflies of the genus Chrysops (deer flies, yellow flies), including the species C. dimidiata and C. silacea, which infect humans by biting them.
