Creeping Eruption

Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) is a zoonotic skin disorder caused by the infestation of animal hookworm larvae, the most common being Ancylostoma braziliense. The larvae penetrate the skin surface and subsequently migrate to the epidermis, leaving a typical manifestation of linear or serpiginous erythematous burrow-like tracks, known as creeping eruption. This report presented a case of a young man with complaints of the serpiginous erupted lesion over the upper left thigh, following a recent history of beach travel. On dermatological examination, an erythematous serpiginous lesion and papules were found, portraying the clinical presentation of CLM. The administration of albendazole 400 mg was started, and the symptoms were completely resolved. Keywords: larva migrans, skin disease, creeping eruption, nematodes, albendazole.
