Abstract

A case of subcutaneous and intramuscular sparganosis was confirmed on surgical excision of a worm in a 60‐year‐old woman suffering from painful masses in the right thigh. Sonography and MRI revealed an ill‐defined intramuscular lesion and multiple cystic lesions in the subcutaneous tissue. At the time of the excision, a sparganum larva was found in the adductor longus muscle. If an intramuscular mass with a serpiginous cystic tract is seen on imaging studies in an endemic area, musculoskeletal sparganosis should be included in the differential diagnosis of a soft tissue tumor.
