Abstract EN
Tungiasis is an endemic disease in certain poor areas around the world.
Imported infestations in travelers are becoming more frequent and can lead to considerable morbidity.
We report a case of a 50 year-old-man who returned from a trip to Guinea-Bissau with an infection caused by Tunga penetrans.
