Case Image: Cutaneous Larva Migrans Diagnosed via Teledermatology
By Paudel V and Sitaula D.
Abstract
Cutaneous larva migrans is a self-limiting parasitic dermatosis that typically presents as itchy, serpiginous, migrating skin track and can be diagnosed clinically. This case demonstrates successful diagnosis and treatment through teledermatology, without laboratory or histopathological testing. Recognizing its characteristic appearance is important for prompt diagnosis and effective remote dermatologic care.
