Infected pork tapeworm meat can not be eaten.

Pork tapeworm is also known as "hooked tapeworm". Human beings are the only final hosts, and they live in the small intestine, causing pork tapeworm.

The intermediate host is mainly pigs, and the cysticerci are mostly parasitized in the muscle, liver, brain and other organs of pigs, and are white dots.

Pork with cysticercus larvae is commonly called "bean pork" or "rice heart meat". People become infected by eating undercooked pork that contains cysticerci. Cysticercus larvae can also parasitize the muscles, brain, and eyes of humans, causing cysticercosis.

Clinical symptoms of intestinal tapeworm are usually mild. Nodules found in the feces are the most common reason patients seek medical attention. A few patients have epigastric or total abdominal cachexia, dyspepsia, diarrhea, and weight loss. Occasionally, there are localized injuries due to the head nodule fixation on the intestinal wall, and a few penetrate the intestinal wall or cause intestinal obstruction.

Extended information:

The epidemiological factors of the disease are mainly due to poor pig feeding In China, it is common to raise pigs in pens, but in some places, no pens are built, or piglets are left open, or toilets are poorly constructed, so that pigs can come and go freely and swallow feces.

There are also some endemic areas where residents are not accustomed to using toilets, or where human toilets and animal pens are connected (even thatched pens), creating an opportunity for pigs to be infected. The rate of cysticercus infection in pigs varies from place to place.

In the serious epidemic area of pork tapeworm disease, local residents have the habit of eating raw or uncooked pork, which plays a decisive role in the spread of the disease. For example, in Yunnan Province, the ethnic minority areas of the festival dishes: the Bai people's "raw skin", the Dai people's "chopped raw", the Hani people's "oh hem", are made with raw pork. There are also smoked or cured meat is no longer steamed by fire.

In addition, such as the southwest region of the "raw slices of hot pot", Yunnan's "Bridge Rice Noodles", Fujian's "Shacha Noodles", etc., are raw meat in the hot soup after a little scalding, dipping The raw meat is slightly scalded in hot soup and then dipped in condiments or mixed with rice noodles or noodles. Sometimes, when eating pork buns or dumplings containing cysticercus larvae, if the steaming time is too short, the cysticercus larvae are not killed. Or use the same knife, cutting board, cut raw and cooked meat, are easy to cause cross-contamination, and lead to human infection.
