Anisakis parasite

The usual diagnostic methods, both skin tests and specific IgE with whole Anisakis extract, have a good sensitivity but a low specificity to such a degree that in 22% of blood donors specific IgE to the parasite is detected [40] and at least 20% of patients with acute urticaria have positive skin prick tests with whole Anisakis extract [41 ]. As for BAT with whole Anisakis extract, Gonzalez-Munoz et al. [42] report a sensitivity of 96% with a specificity of 96%, which are clearly higher values than those from specific IgE. [Pg.133]

Hamartomas are incidental findings without any morbidity. They cannot be distinguished with any degree of certainty from other polyps. Other polypoid lesions with a firm consistency and without specific endoscopic criteria are adenomyoma, fibroma, neuro-fibroma, eosinophilic granuloma, and those caused by parasites, for instance Anisakis marina, a worm found in raw fish. [Pg.44]
