Abstract
As an extremely rare and life-threatening parasitic zoonosis, pulmonary sparganosis should be diagnosed by combining the epidemiology, patient history, eosinophilia and the positive antisparganum antibody test result together if no worm was detected. Oral praziquantel is considered to be an effective treatment.
