About 200 cases have been reported since. Well documented cases are rare due to the difficulty in histological verification. Three cases have been reported in Canada but these were not verified. We believe the present report is the first verified case of visceral larva migrans in Canada and the fifth case of human cerebral involvement by Toxocara in the English literature. It is hoped that this report will emphasize the need for further research into the role of host versus parasite and will underline the potential danger, albeit remote, of household pets to children. Indeed, prevention is the only line of attack, as there is no effective drug against the migrating larvae of Toxocara.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0317167100019661","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,7,28]],"date-time":"2016-07-28T11:30:53Z","timestamp":1469705453000},"page":"114-120","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Toxocara Canis infestation with encephalitis"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"1","author":[{"given":"Nadia Z.","family":"Mikhael","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vital J.A.","family":"Montpetit","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Manuel","family":"Orizaga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Harry C.","family":"Rowsell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michael T.","family":"Richard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0317167100019661_ref018","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"396","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.80.5.396","volume":"80","author":"Kagan","year":"1958","journal-title":"Journal of Immunology"},{"key":"S0317167100019661_ref041","first-page":"272","article-title":"A report on Toxocara Canis (Werner 1782)","volume":"22","author":"Webster","year":"1958","journal-title":"Canadian Journal of Comparative Medicine"},{"key":"S0317167100019661_ref021","first-page":"595","article-title":"Helminth parasites of dogs in Calcutta and their bearing on human parasitology","volume":"28","author":"Maplestone","year":"1940","journal-title":"Indian Journal of Medical Research"},{"key":"S0317167100019661_ref035","first-page":"41","article-title":"On Invasion of the Central Nervous System by Nematodes","volume":"45","author":"Sprent","year":"1955","journal-title":"Invasion of the Central Nervous System in Ascariasis.
