Hookworm folliculitis.

A case of persistent folliculitis in a 21-year-old man was demonstrated to be due to Ancylostoma caninum larvae. Treatment with oral thiabendazole was curative. Cutaneous larva migrans may be due to A caninum, but this presentation appears to be unique. The literature concerning etiology and pathogenesis of larva migrans is discussed with reference to this case.
