Objective To report and study Mammomonogamus laryngeus (human Syngamosis) parasite infection.Methods To describe three cases of Mammomonogamus laryngeus parasite infection in China.Results Mammomonogamus laryngeus was characterized by paroxysms of nonproductive coughing, hemoptysis, and weight loss, not responsive to antibiotic therapy. Diagnosis depended on recovering bloody red worms in the bronchus seen under fiberbronchoscope. Levemizole was effective in eradicating the parasites.Conclusion The Mammomonogamus laryngeus infection should be suspected in patients who have an unknown cause of paroxysms of nonproductive coughing, hemoptysis, and weight loss, and have a history of taking uncooked food.
