Unfertilized (left) and fertilized (right) Ascaris lumbricoides eggs.  The


unfertilized eggs are longer and narrower than fertilized eggs, measuring 75-
85µm by 35-50µm wide. The fertilized eggs have a thick and bumpy outer wall
which is stained golden brown with bile. (Saline wet prep) (SOURCE:  PHIL

This illustration
demonstrates the
gross features of male
and female adult
worms. Note that
both are whip-like,


that the male, in
contrast to the female,
has a
characteristically
coiled tail. These
worms, though small,
are readily seen but
rarely found in feces,

♀ except following
treatment.

Enterobius vermicularis
(adult male)
 
Adult male worms
are much smaller
than females and are
detected less
frequently in feces or
on cellulose tape. The
oral end lacks a true
buccal capsule but is
provided with three
lips and dorsoventral
bladder-like
expansion of the
cuticula. Note the
posterior end strongly
curved ventrad. It has
a single conspicuous
copulatory spicule.
 
Enterobius vermicularis
(adult male)
 
Higher magnification

the adult male
showing strongly
curved ventral end
and the conspicuous
copulatory spicule.
Female and male adult worms.

The female worms of E. vermicularis (pinworm) is white and measures from


8 to 15 mm in length by approximately 0.4 mm in width. In contrast, the
male adult worm is much smaller, measuring 2 to 3 mm in length by 0.1 to
0.2 mm in width. The dilated cephalic region is similar in both sexes, while
the tail is pointed in the females (left) and blunted in the males (right).
Clear adhesive tape applied to the perianal area of a child reveals
numerous football – shaped Enterobius vermicularis embryonated ova.
Scratching the perianal area leads to hand contamination with infected ova
and retroinfections of the host.
