✔Taenia solium, the pork tapeworm of man, as adult lives in the intestine of man leading an endoparasitic life. Its life history is completed in two hosts, i.e., digenetic; man being the primary host and pig as secondary host. Except the adult, various stages of its life history are passed in the body of secondary host.

✔Since, it lives in adult stage in the intestine of man, it causes injuries to mucous membrane lining the alimentary canal where it adheres by its scolex; it may even cause mechanical injury by obstructing the passage of alimentary canal; it causes abdominal pains, weakness, loss of weight and excessive appetite.
