title = "Cutaneous larva migrans: A One Health Perspective on Familial Infection Among Tourists Returning from Southeast Asia",
abstract = "Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) is a dermatosis caused by accidental infestation with animal hookworms and is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. Humans become infected when their skin comes into contact with soil contaminated with dog faeces. The filariform larvae penetrate and burrow into human skin, causing a condition known as “creeping eruption”. We describe a case, well-documented by photos, of CLM infection in a family of three who returned from Thailand.",
