Figure 25: TEM of tegument covering the bladder of Cysticercus pisiformis. 5– 6-weekold tegument showing microtriches formed of elongated base bound by dense material, pointed shaft fi lled with fi brillar matrix separated from the base by basal plate (BP). Distal cytoplasm contains electron-lucent vesicles (LV) that may open on the surface, and dense descoid bodies (DDB).
