Shandong man Wang Lei (pseudonym)
He is 36 years old
Since 2007
He found his left limb
Always tingling and weakness
In the following ten years
He traveled to Shandong, Beijing, Shanghai and so on
A number of well-known tertiary hospitals
Took a lot of medicine
Symptoms remain unresolved
Until 2018
Wang Leicai was diagnosed with a parasitic infection
However, the parasite is located in the functional area of the brain
Doctors did not dare to rush to the operation
Conservative treatment is recommended
Because the slightest carelessness can cause paralysis
Even coma
Conservative treatment for more than half a year has no significant effect
Frequent convulsions and numbness and weakness
Seriously affected his normal work
September this year
Wang Lei came to Guangzhou to seek medical treatment
Doctors operated on him
ultimately
A schizocephalic larvae about 12 cm long
It was successfully "caught"
After the operation, Wang Lei's left limb has slowly recovered. "Now I can walk slowly, and it hurts to pinch my thighs!" Wang Lei said happily.
What is Split-Headed Larvae?
How are people infected?
▼
The scientific name of the schizophrenia is the Schizocephalus schizophalis, and its adult worms parasitize in the intestines of cats and dogs, and occasionally parasitize the intestines of people. The eggs are excreted with feces and hatch in the water to hatch larvae, and after the larvae are eaten by sword water fleas, they continue to develop into protococcy, which parasitizes in wild animals such as frogs and snakes.
Applying frog skin to the wound locally, swallowing snake bile raw, drinking snake blood raw, and eating raw or unripe frog meat and snake meat are the main ways to infect Schizocephalus.
When a person eats uncooked water containing worm eggs
or after food containing protococcyges
The eggs are first adsorbed on the wall of the human intestine
It then hatches into larvae
The larvae then circulate through the bloodstream into the human brain
And wander through the human brain
Absorbing nutrients from brain cells to grow up
It is equivalent to raising a worm in the brain
Just think about it and your scalp tingles
The doctor also said that if it is not taken out
It will also "eat" the brain all the time
At that time, people may be paralyzed
It even poses a life-threatening threat to the human body
Why do bugs grow in the brain?
The reason is related to his eating habits!
It turned out that as early as 2003, Wang Lei worked in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. "At that time, I worked with a boss in Anhui, and the boss loved to eat snails, and I also ate a lot of pots every day." Doctors said that the patient's split-headed larvae infection is likely to be related to eating undercooked field snails, because field snails contain a large number of parasites, and once the uncooked field snails are consumed, it is likely to cause the parasites to "go to the brain".

It is many Cantonese people late at night
A delicacy that soothes the soul
Perilla stir-fried field snails
Stir-fried field snails with sour shoots
Chicken stew with snails...
Before, I drooled when I thought about it
Now, after watching this news
Can't we eat snails in the future?
Nor is it
Make sure the food is cooked
Still edible
How can parasitic infections be prevented?
1/ Keep your mouth shut and don't eat raw food such as snails, snakes and frogs.
2/ Killing Schizophallus completely requires many conditions, and we must not rely on any spices when handling food.
3/ Do not drink uncooked water.
