One of the first cases of human mosquito infection with helminths
in northern latitudes. In Lyubertsy near Moscow, a 12-centimeter
worm grew in a woman's cheek after a mosquito bite. A 51-year-old
Russian woman went to the hospital with complaints of swelling
and itching in the cheek area. Doctors of the Lyubertsy Regional
Hospital ordered an examination and found a tumor in the patient.
They decided to cut her out. During the operation, it turned out that
the woman's cheek was not a tumor, but a 12-centimeter worm. 
he surgeon stressed that he had encountered this for the first time
in ten years of practice. A resident of Lyubertsy never flew abroad
and did not eat anything exotic. She was bitten by an ordinary
mosquito, which, presumably, was infected with helminthiasis.
Earlier it was reported that in Chechnya, doctors removed
a three-kilogram hairball from the stomach of an 11-year-old patient.
Parents turned to doctors when the girl complained of pain and nausea
after eating.
