摘要：
Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) is a skin infestation commonly seen in tropical and subtropical geographic areas, caused by nematode larvae, usually of animal hookworms. Clinically it is characterized by erythematous serpiginous lesions, which are associated with severe itching which may lead to excoriations and secondary bacterial infection. Rarely, it may manifest as vesicobullous lesions or folliculitis. Herein, we present a case of bullous cutaneous larva migrans in a 60-year old farmer who was successfully treated with albendazole and ivermectin. (C) 2015 The Author.
