The longest tapeworm ever removed from a human was 82 feet long, and was removed from a patient in India. The man had complained of abdominal pain for several months and had anemia. A tapeworm is a parasite (Diphyllobothrium datum) that can live in the small intestine and has the ability to grow rapidly.
tapeworms aren't only that species, it's an entire class called Cestoda in phylum Platyhelminthes. there are a bunch of these things out there, so please cook your food! each of the little segments you see actually is an entire reproductive unit, so when they get big enough and mature, the ones at the far end from the scolex will fall off and you'll excrete them, continuing the cycle.
When you don't feel any pain, you'd be amazed at what you can watch. I watched my dermatologist cut open my hand and remove a section of skin cancer. He then stitched up, not all that gently, and since I didn't feel anything, it was like watching it happen to someone else. I was really surprised that I didn't even flinch, since you normally flinch in anticipation of the pain. I also would have never thought you could cut out that much from the back of your hand without seeing bones, but then, a year earlier, he had cut a chunk like a deviled egg out of my check and I was surprised it didn't go through to the inside of my mouth. My cheek was a bit more gruesome than my hand, and kind of looked like some of those Halloween masks.

*Waltzes into Wilson's office; takes a chomp out of his food; darts out the door without a single word* "See ya later" The friend House needed, not the one he always deserved
and he would be right the wiki article says the record was 26 but when the episode came out it was 2016 and a guy in India had a tapeworm removed that was 60 feet this year 2021 the record was broken the longest tapeworm is 82 feet 9 1/2 inches.

I love House because he is an intensivist, pulmonologist, epidemiologist, neurosurgeon, cardiothoracic surgeon, pediatrician, psychiatrist, trauma surgeon, ENT, and gastroenterologist. Overall, well-rounded guy
I personally think everyone no matter their health condition should take a dewormer at least twice in their life. You never know what you can pick up in your travels in life.
True, but there was a House episode where the dude got sick because House got rid of his worms, the worms helped him fight off viruses/bacteria because his parents were too protective and wouldn't let him outside. So maybe not everyone?
I love how the other surgeon asks House if she has a Tapeworm despite being a qualified medical professional xD Just because you see someone else with it doesn't mean you have it lol
@@logical-checkmate This is PROBABLY it. During the early seasons, House had quite a few issues with basically people becoming CONVINCED they had something they saw in House because they'd experienced a few of the symptoms mentioned. They actually addressed this - it's why they run the episode where House is on the plane where all the passengers suddenly get sick. (Spoiler alert: it's mass hysteria, House demonstrates this by listing off completely random symptoms and having everyone suddenly start "displaying" them).
"Seems this is a hospital and we're all dressed like doctors and that there are easier ways to kill somebody". You just gotta love his unnecessary sarcasm. Lol 😂
The scolex, the head, of a fish tapeworm, belonging to the Diphyllobothrium genus, is rounded like a bud of a flower. However, at 6:09 one can clearly see that the scolex of the worm depicted more or less square shaped with hooks and four suckers, which are a well known trait of the pork tapeworm, Taenia Solium. Furthermore, the tapeworm seen in the video has clear, white proglottids or sections of the worm, also a trait of the Taenia genus of tapeworms, while the fish tapeworms have brown dots on each of their proglottids.
It's very cool that you know that and I will be storing this information for a later date. No matter the type, however, it does add a certain amount of drama to see a long worm come out of a conscious person's intestines :)
+Cerus98 oh give it a damn rest. He clearly knows his stuff. As a physician, I'm actually impressed. I've forgotten how Diphyllobothrium latum looks like myself.
I knew a stewardess who came home from a trip overseas and felt really weak and sick. She decided to go on a health kick and take a bunch of vitamins, but then she got REALLY sick. She was seemingly on her deathbed, but a doctor discovered she had some kind of parasite. He said the vitamins were just making the parasite stronger, and that is what what was killing her. So he took her off them and managed to cure her.
I love how house doctors do all things. Need medicine? thats me, need surgury? Thats me too. XRay? me too. Need to go under? Me again. Transplant? Guess who? me.
In this instance, it was hardly a normal surgery. Dude made a little hole and hauled massive worm out of a girl who couldn't feel it or the extraction itself. I probably could've done that.
@@asherikamichaela8425 you may be able to, but most techs and nurses are able to do tests as well. House has his doctors do it because he wants to ensure everything is done perfectly.
@@asherikamichaela8425 i dont think its that simple, u need to know exactly where to look for the worm thats why tests are generally done prior to surgery and u can easily damage structures like the bladder or bowel can easily be perforated. Patient can go into shock due to a bleeding vessel. U need to know the plane of the incision and be able to close it back up with appropriate stitches. Its a lot more complicated than it looks
@@kingsford6540 dude, what he did there is so over exaggerated, he opened her abdomen and THEN opened her intestines and pulled out this massive worm, that's major surgery and would need prepping the patient well and is not an emergency at all. Also, even having the worm infestation, the B12 would still have worked, and a lot of other routine blood tests done before would have pointed to something being off. This is just drama for the sake of the entertainment value. Will not fly in the real world
Watching this series for the first time... I don't really like medical shows but this one has hooked me. My jaw dropped when I saw him pulling out the tapeworm. Hell my jaw has dropped other times too...(eye pop)...House is easily one of the best tv shows I've ever seen

@@MrMovielover17 It's just part of the job, as nurses and doctors have seen all kinds things 🤣 but you get used to it after a while.

Did you ever look into the different types of tapeworms that can live in different animals? My biology teacher did that and a whale tapeworm...well, glad they are more into marine life than land variants.
lol. People violate HIPAA all the time. Anyway, it wouldn't be a violation as long as her the patient is not in frame, possibly so long as they are not identifiable. The tapeworm doesn't have privacy rights. Violation wouldn't occur on taking a picture anyway, only upon sharing it with non-authorized individuals.
Here's a Nerdy fact to put things in perspective. The Tapeworm in this scene is 25 ft long, and a Minecraft Block is 1 meter tall and 1 meter long (or 3.28084 ft) Meaning that Tapeworm is 7 Minecraft blocks long The old record House is referring to, 60ft long, That is 18 Minecraft blocks long The New & Current record. 82ft is 25 Minecraft blocks long. Horrifying, Fascinating and kind of a neat thing to put into perspective.
"That's gotta be 25 feet long." "Dammit... The world record's over 60." ...Seriously?! They do world records for the _longest tapeworm_ found in a person's GI tract?!
Fun fact: The record he's referencing is apparently outdated, because now the record for longest tapeworm removed from a human body is 82 feet.
Didn't you see the flip phone?
This season of the show was made in 2007, so there will definitely be some things about it that are outdated

@@Tigressa101 OR if you're paranoid about it just get checked in case way before that.
@@FarikoWishless There's a special type of test for parasites like tapeworms and doctors don't usually like to waste time using one on someone who is paranoid. Once you display a symptom, they'll happily do it. If not, they'll probably wave you off or just give you a pill that can help the immune system fight parasites to calm your paranoia
@@Tigressa101 well thanks man, now I'm not going to be paranoid about this for the next couple of weeks...
I love this show but I've watched like 20 of these clips back to back and I realize that the main way House solves things is by people absentmindedly mentioning something which appears to be not related at all; only for House to have a little "brain blast" and suddenly put the pieces together. haha.
Pretty sure Wilson has mentioned that.
@@wolfmatic399 I'm sure he has, I'm only on season 2 so I haven't caught it yet.
The proper term is “house moment”
Nice Jimmy neutron reference
Persephone Black he has epiphanies.
The mom asking if her daughter is alright tears me up everytime.
Girl: is guilty about the car accident because her mom is hurt.
House: Now this, this is a symptom.
I feel bad I squished a lizard by accident.. I guess my B-12 is low
Emus are great Lol must be a tapeworm right
Season 3, episode 14 “Insensitive”. If anyone was wondering...
Up you go, sir!
Legoboy48 Haha. Yeah I was in the middle of watching the episode earlier today. Got recommended this a minute ago.
Are the episodes in Neflix?
Jegarsahaduta No, I was using amazon prime video.
Thanks
*Waltzes into Wilson's office; takes a chomp out of his food; darts out the door without a single word*
"See ya later"
The friend House needed, not the one he always deserved
,,It's over 25 feet long"
House: ,,dammit, world record's over 60"
House is the best character ever
and he would be right the wiki article says the record was 26 but when the episode came out it was 2016 and a guy in India had a tapeworm removed that was 60 feet this year 2021 the record was broken the longest tapeworm is 82 feet 9 1/2 inches. If you don't want tapeworms steam your trout or you will get them.
I like how he knows things like the world record for longest tapeworm off hand.
Is that actually true???
The episode premiered in 2007, so why are you mentioning the record from 2016?
3:35 To be brutally honest, elevated eosinophils should've been a dead giveaway to what was wrong with her. Eosinophils are white blood cells specifically tailored to fight endoparasites.
Cells at Work taught me that. :3c
Ah yes, another medical weeb. : ))
Eosinophils can be also present for allergies
English?
Awww yeah cells at work taught me loads too
@@jowairiady1931 yeah but its MORE specific to parasites. Neutrophils is more specific to allergies.
This was probably the most bizarre surgery the surgical staff of that hospital has ever seen.
Just another day working with House
6:31 My girl really whipped out her *flip phone* and took a pic. Mood.
That is a huge HIPAA violation tho. That nurse could lose her job for that one
@@JollyWanker I mean most photos people take in their lives technically never leave the device. And this was waaaay before the days of social media and viral photo/video stuff. Plus any responsible medical worker would blur/crop patient's face off IF they had to post it somewhere
Nah.. usually patient's consent is taken for photography..and photos are taken as records
Hey flip phones were all we have before the freaking mobile came along and Tracfones
@@JollyWanker Oh hush, this is TV!!
I like how the lady asks if she has a tapeworm in her then House tells her no she would be in pain so people watching the show will not freak out lol.
“Dammit, the world record is over 60”
Wouldnt that nurse get in huge trouble for taking a pic with her phone?
President Kimi yes that’s a huge HIPPA violation
Why? If there wasn't a face in the pic, i don't think it would be a violation.
If the patiënt is not reconisable theb not. But he props still wil be for tuching a phone while stirele
@@MyCrafcik In the hospital i'm currently an apprentice in we have been given a full size speech about never taking pictures with the patient or their belongings without very clear consent. Partly for legal reasons but mostly for intimacy.
A different time before people went nuts with their phones.
Thank the lord and savior House it wasn't lupus.
Its never lupus
@@camthespaceman6920 except that one time
Not gonna thank an imaginary zombie. House wouldn't.
@@smurfyday Who would? The guy is already half dead anyway...
The tapeworm had Lupus :-(
Wilson to the rescue as usual.
House never really needed a team , Wilson accidentally solved more than half of all House's cases.
"That has to be 25 feet long."
"Damn....the world record is 60."
Edit: Holy smokes thanks for the likes guys
over 60.
Over 9000
Dinomite stfu
snow icecream i see ur an intellectual in nic levels.
Hell no
It's missing the best part of the episode, when House hits her with his cane
This was a super interesting case. To someone who can feel pain, this would have been solved much much faster.
ITS A TV Show designed for entertainment!
So satisfying and so gross at the same time.
Watch Dr. Pimple Popper.
Only if you have a strong stomach lol my mom loves watching that sick shit all the time lol
@@macmac3374 My mom's a nurse, and growing up she used to sit down to dinner and tell us awful stories about her patients that day. Some were awful, all over dinner, haha.
Satisfying and gross at the same time. Sex in a nutshell.
How was that satisfying????
This procedure is so not sterile I'm cringing all the way from behind the screen
Are u a doctor?
This is a tv show. There are a ton of inaccuracies get over it
@@sailorarwen6101 Yeah, who wants acurate and realistic TV shows amIright?
Welcome to House😎
Yeah, the show is focused on the story
"And a large(ish) salad bowl"
*Dead*
"C'mon weenies, she's in a _cast."_
House has the best dialogue ever.
edit: spelling
Daaammmnn! I can't even imagine something like that. I mean watching a group of doctors pulling out a 25 foot tapeworm out of your gut. I would literally freak out if it was me.
That would feel so weird
I love how House was asking for all this medical equipment and then asked a for a salad bowl 😂✨
There was a Macdonald’s food commercial right before this video.
Well that's unfortunate. At least it wasn't a macarroni one
I got food poisoning the last time I ate McDonald's, so I wouldn't doubt it
GODZylla As opposed to...what? A *McDonalds* furniture commercial?
Bet you're glad this eye candy made you stop thinking of that disgusting stuff
Atleast not ramen one
"Yeah, I'll just casually watch this worm be taken out of my body."
Lol to shock to say anything.
And trying to figure out what real and not real
I practically cried when the Mom was talking to the girl- she reminds me of My Mom who is always checking on me; and to just see that girls Mom pass was just killing- so it just reminds me that everyone should respect their Mother’s.
Pass? She doesn't die
She doesn't pass, just comes incredibly close to doing do from the evidence shown in the video
She didn't die. And also, not everyone's mother deserves respect.
I love House because he is an intensivist, pulmonologist, epidemiologist, neurosurgeon, cardiothoracic surgeon, pediatrician, psychiatrist, trauma surgeon, ENT, and gastroenterologist. Overall, well-rounded guy
His job is to know symptoms and causes and basic knowledge around those things. He's a jack of all trades but master of none
also a radiologist
I personally think everyone no matter their health condition should take a dewormer at least twice in their life. You never know what you can pick up in your travels in life.
True, but there was a House episode where the dude got sick because House got rid of his worms, the worms helped him fight off viruses/bacteria because his parents were too protective and wouldn't let him outside. So maybe not everyone?
I know I wanted to deworm after seeing this episode lol
How do you deworm?
@@SuperLari1234 FENBEN IS USED. FENBEN ALSO KILLS CANCER
twice a year is more like it.i do with my family
When her mom says "your temperature" it always breaks my heart.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh”
“She is faking it” 😂
“That’s over 25 feet Long!”
Excpects some to be shocked but noooooo
Dammit the record is over 60.
😂😂😂
In case anyone was wondering, it was most likely a Diphyllobothrium tapeworm. These are among the largest/longest tapeworms you can get.
And he said fishing 😅 = Diphyllobothrium latum.
I love how the other surgeon asks House if she has a Tapeworm despite being a qualified medical professional xD
Just because you see someone else with it doesn't mean you have it lol
Lewys Cousins it may have meant she eats a lot of fish.
Yes
It was most likely for the audience, so they don´t freak out "OMG, I can have a tapeworm in me."
@@logical-checkmate This is PROBABLY it. During the early seasons, House had quite a few issues with basically people becoming CONVINCED they had something they saw in House because they'd experienced a few of the symptoms mentioned.
They actually addressed this - it's why they run the episode where House is on the plane where all the passengers suddenly get sick. (Spoiler alert: it's mass hysteria, House demonstrates this by listing off completely random symptoms and having everyone suddenly start "displaying" them).
I think the one who asked was a nurse.
me: "Doc, I have a headache"
House: "he lied, he has eaten a gameboy and now has a worm eating his intestines"
They need to make a pre-House M.D. series where a younger House is in Med school and doing practicum. That would be an awesome series!
I second this motion!
Young House?
"Seems this is a hospital and we're all dressed like doctors and that there are easier ways to kill somebody".
You just gotta love his unnecessary sarcasm. Lol 😂
You would be surprised at how Medical personel act in real life, very informal
House's sarcasm was ALWAYS neccessary.
The scolex, the head, of a fish tapeworm, belonging to the Diphyllobothrium genus, is rounded like a bud of a flower. However, at 6:09 one can clearly see that the scolex of the worm depicted more or less square shaped with hooks and four suckers, which are a well known trait of the pork tapeworm, Taenia Solium. Furthermore, the tapeworm seen in the video has clear, white proglottids or sections of the worm, also a trait of the Taenia genus of tapeworms, while the fish tapeworms have brown dots on each of their proglottids.
It's very cool that you know that and I will be storing this information for a later date. No matter the type, however, it does add a certain amount of drama to see a long worm come out of a conscious person's intestines :)
+Cerus98 oh give it a damn rest. He clearly knows his stuff. As a physician, I'm actually impressed. I've forgotten how Diphyllobothrium latum looks like myself.
Impressive you know that
Count Dracula: bleh-bableh
💫The more you know💫
6:36
*Damm IT, world record is over 60*
House. Your humor kills me.
I knew a stewardess who came home from a trip overseas and felt really weak and sick. She decided to go on a health kick and take a bunch of vitamins, but then she got REALLY sick. She was seemingly on her deathbed, but a doctor discovered she had some kind of parasite. He said the vitamins were just making the parasite stronger, and that is what what was killing her. So he took her off them and managed to cure her.
I love how house doctors do all things. Need medicine? thats me, need surgury? Thats me too. XRay? me too. Need to go under? Me again. Transplant? Guess who? me.
I think it's justified as house wanting only his people doing something.
In this instance, it was hardly a normal surgery. Dude made a little hole and hauled massive worm out of a girl who couldn't feel it or the extraction itself. I probably could've done that.
@@asherikamichaela8425 you may be able to, but most techs and nurses are able to do tests as well. House has his doctors do it because he wants to ensure everything is done perfectly.
@@asherikamichaela8425 i dont think its that simple, u need to know exactly where to look for the worm thats why tests are generally done prior to surgery and u can easily damage structures like the bladder or bowel can easily be perforated. Patient can go into shock due to a bleeding vessel. U need to know the plane of the incision and be able to close it back up with appropriate stitches. Its a lot more complicated than it looks
@@kingsford6540 dude, what he did there is so over exaggerated, he opened her abdomen and THEN opened her intestines and pulled out this massive worm, that's major surgery and would need prepping the patient well and is not an emergency at all. Also, even having the worm infestation, the B12 would still have worked, and a lot of other routine blood tests done before would have pointed to something being off. This is just drama for the sake of the entertainment value. Will not fly in the real world
She’s probably the first person to watch her own procedure and see stuff pulled out
House: Pulls massive tapeworm from a girl without using anesthetics while she watches.
Other Doctor: *takes picture with her phone*
Me: Laughs.
😄😄😄
That's doctoring...
Soooo fucking illegal too
I'd take a few photos, too.
@@Glyff3083 i mean as long as you don't get any faces in sure it would devolve into legal gray area
“It must be 25ft long!”
“Aw the record is 60ft”
😂
Now 80ft some comments suggest.
He said over 60 ft long .
I like how he just knows that fun fact.
It hurts me to see people in such terrible conditions, like the lady at the beginning. I almost cried
House: *Continues to pull out worm*
That guy: *takes a picture with a flip phone*
It's a grill

That violates HIPAA and he could get sued for that.
"Come on, weenies! She's in a cast"' 💀💀
"Lake fishing can be fun! It can bring the generations together." I'm dead!
House: *eats sandwich* (Second later, solves it)
Wilson: *sighs* Here we go again, I'LL MARK THIS CASE AS SOLVED AGAIN!

Wilson: says some trivial shit
House: hol on a sec cheif
No tape worms were harmed in the making of this.
Can you guys please add the season and episode details for every clip now on please. You guys used to do that. Now no more. Please do add the details

3:55 My reaction when i saw that worm
I was thinking more like 5:41 myself
25ft.
That's 762 cm.
Exactly on point.
Watching this series for the first time... I don't really like medical shows but this one has hooked me. My jaw dropped when I saw him pulling out the tapeworm. Hell my jaw has dropped other times too...(eye pop)...House is easily one of the best tv shows I've ever seen
"You're not gonna anesthetize her?!" ....Should've asked that question a LOOOONG time ago, with about 50 other really good questions in front of it.
Funny how House usually solves the puzzle from an insult someone gives him.
I remember this episode of house so well because I was in the first part of my nursing program and it was the buzz of the entire class for almost a week. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This made me throw up. Thank God I'm not a nurse. The horrors nurses see..
@@MrMovielover17 It's just part of the job, as nurses and doctors have seen all kinds things 🤣 but you get used to it after a while.
The weird moments are when your own nurses asks for check up and you have seen their body but still need to keep a straight face while working to maintain profesionalism
@dog lover lol did someone hurt you?
@@bessyxyz might be lupus.
I remember my high school biology teacher years ago talking about this parasite, this is really gross and freaky 😕
Did you ever look into the different types of tapeworms that can live in different animals? My biology teacher did that and a whale tapeworm...well, glad they are more into marine life than land variants.
8TH GRADE, TRAUMATIZED SECOND TIME WHILE WATCHING THIS EPISODE
3:24 "just to suffer"
Nice.
Great job boss
5:40
Relax it's just a magic trick
Patient AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
That Ain't No Magic Trick
Damn nurse that took a picture!.... Lady, have you never heard of HIPAA before?? Lol
lol. People violate HIPAA all the time. Anyway, it wouldn't be a violation as long as her the patient is not in frame, possibly so long as they are not identifiable. The tapeworm doesn't have privacy rights. Violation wouldn't occur on taking a picture anyway, only upon sharing it with non-authorized individuals.
Woah you’re rick c-137 so you must be the smartest man ever
Nick If they distribute it to anyone not involved with the case, then it is a HIPAA violation without the patients consent.
@@tinyelephant1533 That's what I said.
@Walkin' Tall you sound like a bad person
Here's a Nerdy fact to put things in perspective. The Tapeworm in this scene is 25 ft long, and a Minecraft Block is 1 meter tall and 1 meter long (or 3.28084 ft) Meaning that Tapeworm is 7 Minecraft blocks long
The old record House is referring to, 60ft long, That is 18 Minecraft blocks long
The New & Current record. 82ft is 25 Minecraft blocks long.
Horrifying, Fascinating and kind of a neat thing to put into perspective.
This is indeed a nerdy fact. You must be good at word problems, huh?
"That's gotta be 25 feet long."
"Dammit... The world record's over 60."
...Seriously?! They do world records for the _longest tapeworm_ found in a person's GI tract?!
Yes they do do you really put it past them? They did a world record on longest toe nails too
The record is actually 82 feet, or 25 Meters.

For anyone that are looking for the"Eureka" moment.
All of the doctors are just stunned and shocked by the tapeworm, whilst ONE MF decided to take a picture in the middle of the operation's ending 💀💀💀
I know they're not always accurate but it's amazing how they thought of combining CIPA, tape worm and Vitamin B deficiency for this episode.
