Hymenolepidosisis a chronic parasitic disease that develops with parasitizationin the human intestine of the tape helminth Hymenolepis nana, or dwarf tapeworm. Hymenolepidosis affects mainly the urban population. More often, children 4–14 years old are sick, which is explained by the insufficient instillation of hygienic skills in them, as well as the characteristics of age-related immunity. Hymenolepidosis disease is asymptomatic. The main symptoms of the disease are: abdominal pain in the form of seizures, skin rashes, loss of appetite, heartburn, nausea, diarrhea, weight loss, dysbiosis, dizziness, asthenia, irritability, headache, skin itching, rhinitis, Quincke's edema. With severe helminthic invasion, the patient may experience fainting, lowgrade fever, myocardial dystrophy, seizures, hepatomegaly, anemia, hypovitaminosis. In addition to standard research methods (general analysis of blood, urine, bacteriological and biochemical studies), we conducted a thorough study for all children. At the same time, they paid attention to their complaints, to the transferred and concomitant disease, premorbid background, the cause of the disease, the duration, the effect of previous treatment measures. When studying the results, hymenolepidosisin children is often found in hot climates and, which is apparently associated with the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the child's body, age, and possibly with the severity of the underlying disease.Children were examined regardless of the presence of complaints. In addition to standard research methods (general analysis of blood, urine, bacteriological and biochemical studies), we conducted a thorough study for all children.
