  In the NEJM case study, the doctors wrote that the ultrasound revealed "linear structures" moving within one of the lymphatic vessels in the man's scrotum.
  Further tests, including an analysis of the man's blood, confirmed the presence of the parasitic nematode species Wuchereria bancrofti.
  Infection with this species of nematode, or roundworm, as well as two other species in the Filariodidea family, can result in a disease known as lymphatic filariasis.
  In the [mosquito-borne] disease, this observation is known as a "filarial dance sign." This sign represents the undulations of live worms that have moved into the lymphatic vessels, causing dysfunction.
