Abstract
A case of human dirofilariasis associated with Dirofilaria (Nochtiella) repens, localised in the spermatic duct, is reported in a 52-year-old man from Lugo di Romagna (Ravenna province, Northern Italy). It represents the 22nd case of human dirofilariasis occurring until now in the same region. According to the relevant world literature this appears to be the 2nd case with this rare localisation the first one occurring in Italy as well.Entities:
