Historical Perspective
- Ancylostomiasis was first discovered by Dubini, an Italian physician, in 1838 who provided the first detailed description of hookworms during an autopsy on a woman who had died in Milan.[1]
- Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale were responsible for all human hookworm infections mentioned by Bethony et al ( 2006), de Silva et al.(2003), however Bradbury & Traub (2016) and Traub et al. (2008) mentioned Ancylostoma ceylanicum is also an important hookworm of humans, especially in South East Asia.[2]
