Abstract Abstract Clinical case The case concerns a 33-year-old Ukrainian woman, who came to the Ophthalmology Emergency Service, stating that she had a “worm” under the skin of her upper left eyelid that wriggled at night and bit her. A complete examination revealed a subcutaneous foreign body, which showed a filarial appearance and seemed to crawl under the skin. It was surgically removed to discover a live parasite, PCR-identified as Dirofilaria repens. Discussion Humans are accidental hosts in the cycle of Dirofilaria. There are only 8 reported cases of subcutaneous infection in Spain. Due to global warming, D. repens has become an emerging infectious agent in Central Europe countries such as Ukraine. The findings in this case are discussed.

The findings in this case are discussed. Mujer de 33 años, ucraniana, acude a urgencias asegurando tener alojado en el párpado un gusano que se mueve y le muerde. La exploración reveló un cuerpo extraño subcutáneo, filiforme, que reptaba bajo la piel. Fue extirpado quirúrgicamente extrayéndose un parásito vivo identificado por PCR como Dirofilaria repens. Los humanos son huéspedes accidentales en el ciclo de las dirofilarias. En España apenas se han publicado 8 casos de afectación subcutánea. Ante el calentamiento global D. repens se ha convertido en un agente infeccioso emergente en países de Centroeuropa como el originario de la paciente. Exponemos nuestras conclusiones.
