Definition
- 1(Ascaris lumbricoides) Gusano del tipo de los nemátodos que es un parásito intestinal del ser humano y otros mamíferos. El contagio se produce por la ingestión de huevos, que maduran y eclosionan en el intestino delgado. Las larvas viajan por el torrente sanguíneo y llegan a los pulmones, para alcanzar la laringe y al ser tragadas, nuevamente llegan al intestino, donde completan su desarrollo y ponen sus huevos, que salen con las heces y reinician el ciclo de la infección.
