Entamoeba Histolytica - Book Test at Low Cost

Entamoeba histolytica is a parasitic protozoan that can cause amebiasis, a disease that primarily affects the intestines but can also spread to other organs, such as the liver and lungs. Entamoeba histolytica is transmitted through ingestion of contaminated food or water, or through direct contact with fecal matter containing the parasite.

Entamoeba histolytica can also spread to other organs, most commonly the liver, through the bloodstream or by direct extension from the intestines. Liver involvement can result in a condition called amebic liver abscess, which can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, fever, and hepatomegaly (enlargement of the liver). In rare cases, Entamoeba histolytica can spread to other organs, such as the lungs or brain, resulting in serious complications.

Diagnosis of Entamoeba histolytica infection typically involves microscopic examination of fecal samples for the presence of cysts or trophozoites. Serological tests and molecular tests, such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), may also be used for confirmation in some cases. Proper diagnosis is important to differentiate Entamoeba histolytica infection from other causes of diarrhea or liver abscess, as treatment approaches may differ.
