Naegleria fowleri in Central and South America: The brain-eating amoeba is it in Peru?

Descripción del Articulo

Free-living amoebae (FLA) are microbial entities that are capable of causing disease in humans and animals. Naegleria fowleri is one of the three free-living amoebae that are pathogenic to humans; it has been identified in the South American continent. Peru has reported only one case in 2015. This c...

This case has not been published, only notified to the Ministry of Health. The girl under 11 years old and was infected in Piura, north coast of Peru. Patients die after 5-7 days, that is, it is an acute course. Latin countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia describe 1, 5, 7 and 6 cases respectively.

Naegleria fowleri es una de las tres amebas patógenas a humanos, ésta se ha identificado en el continente sudamericano. Perú ha reportado solo un caso el 2015, este caso no ha sido publicado, solo notificado al ministerio de salud. Es el caso de una niña menor de11 años y se infectó en Piura, costa norte del Perú. Los pacientes fallecen al cabo de 5-7 días, es decir, es un curso agudo. Los países latinos como: Argentina, Brasil, Venezuela y Colombia describen 1, 5, 7 y 6 casos respectivamente.  En esta revisión describiremos varios aspectos de esta ameba. La morfología, ecología, patología, epidemiologia, clásico, los medios de cultivo adecuados y diagnósticos microbiológicos y moleculares.
