Costa Rica<\/a>\u00a0est\u00e1 en alerta tras\u00a0la segunda muerte confirmada a causa de una infecci\u00f3n generada por una larva\u00a0<\/b>que, adem\u00e1s, tiene a otras 11 personas contagiadas.<\/p>\n

El Ministerio de Salud de ese pa\u00eds centroamericano inform\u00f3 el segundo fallecimiento por la infecci\u00f3n ocasionada por\u00a0el gusano barrenador, una larva que las moscas depositan en heridas o mucosas de\u00a0animales<\/a>\u00a0de sangre caliente.<\/b><\/p>\n

L<\/b>a mosca\u00a0<\/b>Cochliomyia hominivorax,\u00a0<\/b><\/i>que generan las larvas,<\/b>\u00a0tiene un color azulado<\/b>\u00a0y es un poco\u00a0m\u00e1s grande que la mosca dom\u00e9stica. Tiene un olfato muy desarrollado,<\/b>\u00a0huele la sangre y\u00a0en c<\/b>ualquier herida abierta pone los huevos.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Los 11 pacientes infectados, por su parte,\u00a0contrajeron miasis,\u00a0<\/b>y est\u00e1n siendo monitoreadas por las autoridades sanitarias.<\/p>\n

El \u00faltimo deceso corresponde a un paciente con \u201cuna lesi\u00f3n oral donde se le detectaron larvas\u201d<\/b>, indic\u00f3 la ministra de Salud, Mary Munive, en un comunicado.<\/p>\n

\u201cNuestra recomendaci\u00f3n, estar vigilante porque\u00a0si hay heridas expuestas o \u00falceras, estas pueden atraer a la mosca\u00a0<\/b>que ocasiona esta miasis\u201d, agreg\u00f3 la ministra.<\/p>\n

El pasado 19 de junio se registr\u00f3 la primera muerte de humanos\u00a0<\/b>en el pa\u00eds por la infecci\u00f3n causada por\u00a0esta enfermedad parasitaria.<\/b><\/p>\n

Los s\u00edntomas en humanos pueden\u00a0incluir dolor, prurito intenso (picaz\u00f3n), eritema cut\u00e1neo (enrojecimiento), n\u00f3dulos cut\u00e1neos, herida que supura\u00a0<\/b>y presencia de una\u00a0protuberancia dolorosa en la piel\u00a0<\/b>que puede secretar l\u00edquido<\/b>.<\/b><\/p>\n

Cuando la larva se instala en la herida y crece, puede ser visible bajo la piel y a menudo se puede sentir movi\u00e9ndose.\u00a0<\/b>El tratamiento generalmente implica la extracci\u00f3n quir\u00fargica de la larva, seguida de cuidados locales para prevenir la infecci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

El gusano barrenador\u00a0suele afectar a animales bovinos, ovinos y cabras, pero cualquier animal de sangre caliente es susceptible de contagiarse,<\/b>\u00a0se\u00f1al\u00f3 el Servicio Nacional de Salud Animal de Costa Rica.<\/p>\n
