Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the study of the historical aspects of the development of toxocarosis in humans, the algorithm for its diagnosis, clinical symptoms and treatment. Research methods: retrospective analysis of scientific and information sources on the problem of helminthic diseases. The the problem of toxocarosis has been the great social significance, helminthiasis, used for the first time an in-depth analysis of the historical, clinical and diagnostic aspects in the study of toxsocariasis in humans. The novelty of the research. Toxocarosis is a parasitic infestation, which was included in a number of pathologies, which is treated with disdain in Europe and other regions of the world in the past, but which in recent years, more and more increasing due to high incidence, high risk of infection, sustainable development, and the controversial diagnosis, as well as insufficient and incomplete therapy. Toxocarosis is a zoonotic disease nature. This means that the agents of such disease (helminthes toxocar) during the normal life cycle of living in an organism of animals, man is the intermediate host and the disease can lead to serious consequences. The most common species are tt. canis and t. cati. Among these people, birds, pigs, rodents, goats, monkeys and rabbits. Man catches it when ingested eggs of t. canis or t. cati. In host larvae of paratenicheskih never ripen and remain on the second stage of development. The eggs of these worms are common environmental pollutants Wednesday for people, mostly due to the fact that many of the dogs and cats serve as pets, while many others are homeless running through the streets of most urban centers. Helminth eggs present in the feces of dogs and cats, become contagious for several weeks after their local selection Wednesday. People, especially kids, often come into contact with these eggs immediately thus accidently. Conclusions. Toxocarosis infection has depend on the number of larvae and circulating in the blood of affected organs, as well as the reaction of the immune system of the host. Hardest to recognize toxocarosis, when he is asymptomatic or symptoms is not pronounced. In this period can be quite long, up to several years. Infection in humans, unlike their final masters, often remains the occult. Visceral larval form (VLM) and ocular larval form (OLM) is two clinical manifestations, which lead to certain syndromes and constitute a serious health problem, wherever they occur. Keeping the patient from toxocarosis are complex and include not only different methods of diagnosis and treatment and long-term followup. Toxocarosis is known as a single lesion is already very long, with the development of methods of diagnosis and treatment over time, allowing the gradual and profound knowledge of the helminthiasis of public interest to it becoming more and more intense in most of the time.
