Acquired Megacolon

Where the skin is the portal of infection, an indurated, oedematous skin lesion called a chagoma is seen. There may be multiple chagomas. [patient.info]

In congenital acute infections there is fever, oedema, metastatic chagomas, convulsions, tremors, weak reflexes, apnoea and hepatosplenomegaly. ECG is usually normal. [patient.info]

Abstract We report a case of accidental infection by Trypanosoma cruzi in a 42-year-old female patient who presented an inoculation chagoma. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Dermatologic manifestations of acute infection may include localized swelling at the site of inoculation (chagoma), conjunctivitis (Romaña's sign), and a generalized morbilliform [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Unless the person lives in an area where the chagomas associated with Chagas disease are well recognized, the acute phase is not often diagnosed. [medicinenet.com]

The bugs often bite and/or deposit feces near the eyes and lips; when the parasites enter the skin, swelling and redness (termed a chagoma) often develop. [medicinenet.com]

The imaging pattern of brain chagoma is similar to that of cerebral toxoplasmosis although chagomas tend to be larger than Toxoplasma lesions. [cdc.gov]
