Lung parenchyma showing damage due to large subpleural bullae. Parenchyma (/ p ə ˈ r ɛ ŋ k ɪ m ə /) [1] [2] is the bulk of functional substance in an animal organ or structure such as a tumour. In zoology, it is the tissue that fills the interior of flatworms. In botany, it is some layers in the cross-section of the leaf. [3]
Humans can also get this skin disease if elementary hygiene measures are not observed after dealing with infected animals. This dermatologic condition is known by many names - cutaneous streptotrichosis (on cattle, goats, and horses), rain scald (on horses), lumpy wool (on sheep), and strawberry foot rot. [1]
It causes small pustules in the skin of primarily sheep and goats, but can also occur on the hands of humans. [3] A pale halo forms around a red centre. [4] It may persist for several weeks before crusting and then either resolves or leaves a granuloma. [4] There is usually only one non-painful lesion, but there can be more. [4]
Liver fluke infections cause serious medical and veterinary diseases. Fasciolosis of sheep, goats and cattle, is the major cause of economic losses in dairy and meat industry. [5] Fasciolosis of humans produces clinical symptoms such as fever, nausea, swollen liver, extreme abdominal pain, jaundice and anemia. [6]
The skin weighs an average of four kilograms, covers an area of two square metres, and is made of three distinct layers: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue. [1] The two main types of human skin are: glabrous skin, the hairless skin on the palms and soles (also referred to as the "palmoplantar" surfaces), and hair-bearing skin. [3]

Sheep, goats and cattle are considered the predominant animal reservoirs. While other animals can be infected, they are usually not very important for human disease transmission. On the other hand, some authors have observed that donkeys and pigs contribute to disease transmission in Bolivia. [33]
When humans consume T. solium eggs, the eggs hatch into larvae, which penetrate the intestinal wall and spread throughout the body, leading to cysticercosis. Although the cysts can form in any tissue, they are most commonly found in the central nervous system, skeletal muscle, skin, and eyes. [27]
