Enterobius vermicularis, commonly known as the pinworm, is a nematode parasite that infects the human intestine. The parasite has a worldwide distribution. It has a life cycle of 2-4 weeks that involves eggs being deposited around the anus by female pinworms at night and infecting new hosts if the eggs are ingested. Common symptoms of pinworm infection include itching around the anus and vagina, especially at night. Diagnosis involves examining perianal skin scrapings under a microscope for characteristic eggs. Treatment involves anti-parasitic medications and hygiene measures to prevent reinfection.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

2. INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
Enterobius vermicularis is a
nematode(roundworm) and a common
intestinal parasite in humans
It has a round body with cylindrical ends and a
complete digestive system including mouth
and anus
It has separate sexes, the female is usually
larger than a male
It has a worldwide distribution
3. MORPHOLOGYMORPHOLOGY
The body is covered with a highly resistant
coating called cuticle
The male worm is inconspicuous and has a
length of 2 to 5mm
The female is dominant and has a length of 8 to
13mm
4. GENERALGENERAL
CHARACTERISTICS OF THECHARACTERISTICS OF THE
EGGEGG
●Colourless .not bile stained
●Asymetrical in shape, being plano-convex.
(flattened on one side and convex on the
other
●Measure 50-60micrometer in length by
30micrometer in breadth
●Surrounded by transparent shell
●Contains a coiled tadpole like larva
●Floats in saturated solution of common salt
8. ContdContd
Humans are the host
Infections occur by ingestion of eggs
The egg-shells are dissolved by the digestive
juices and larvae escape in the small intestine
The larvae develops into adolescent form
Fertilization occurs in the colon, after that
males die
9. ContdContd
Gravid female migrates nocturnally from the
small intestine down to the caecum and colon.
Through anus they came out at night and
deposit egg in the perianal skin
The eggs become infectious within 6 hours
The movement of the female worm and the
eggs cause itching
Scratching the area may result in retro infection
The whole life cycle is completed in 2-4 weeks
time
10. PATHOGENESIS AND CLINICALPATHOGENESIS AND CLINICAL
FINDINGSFINDINGS
Infection in man known as enterobiasis
MODE OF INFECTION
● Auto-infection
● Retrofection
11. Auto-infection
● Autoinfection occurs by scratching the
perianal area and transferring infective
eggs to the mouth with contaminated
hands by patients itself. Following
ingestion, eggs hatch and release larvae
in the small intestine
12. Retrofection
● Egg laid on the perianal skin immediately
hatch in to the infective stage larvae and
migrate through the anus to develop into
adolescent forms in the colon
13. PATHOGENESIS AND CLINICALPATHOGENESIS AND CLINICAL
FINDINGSFINDINGS
It is thought to be an allergic reaction to the
presence of either the adult female or the eggs
Itching of the perianal and vaginal area is
commonly notable, especially during night
Weight loss is also observed in severe infections
Scratching predisposes to secondary bacterial
infection
17. ContdContd
Eggs are not found in the stool
Eggs are generally demonstrated in the
scrappings from the perianal skin by a NIH
swab.
18. TREATMENTTREATMENT
Mebandazole and albendazole can be used
These drugs are given in 1 dose at first, the
second dose is repeated after 2 weeks
Topical insecticide containing malathion can be
applied on the skin
19. PROPHYLAXISPROPHYLAXIS
Wash the anal area in the morning
Launder the bed sheets in hot water.
Don't scratch and avoid nail biting
Clean toilet seats daily.
Wash your hands.
