Parasitic Infections

Abstract

Of the parasites that invade the lung, most are rare and some are unique. Of the 44 parasites or groups of parasites described in this chapter, only 9 migrate co or through the human lungs as part of their life cycle in this host (Table 12-1). Over half the parasites included here are spurious or aberrant infections in man, the true host species being other animals.

The opinions or assertions contained herein are the private views of the authors and are not to be construed as official or as reflecting the views of the Department of the Navy or the Department of Defense.
