[Tungiasis].
Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd. 1992 Jul 11; 136(28):1359-62.NT

Abstract

Tungiasis is an inflammation of the skin caused by infestation of a fertilised female sand flea, Tunga penetrans. Two patients who contracted this skin disease in the tropics (Surinam and Kenya-Uganda) are described. Because of the increase of international travelling, import diseases are seen more often. If the disease is known, it is easy to diagnose and to treat tungiasis.
