Members of the genus are responsible for taeniasis and cysticercosis in humans.

Infections involving the pork and beef tapeworms are also called taeniasis.

It is one of the three species of Taenia that infect humans and causes taeniasis.

Thus he proposed that swallowing of infected fleas (for example, with milk) might be the reason for taeniasis in children.

This traditional drug is effective against the intestinal fluke Haplorchis taichui or against taeniasis.

There are numerous diseases that humans may contract from endogenously infected meat, such as anthrax, bovine tuberculosis, brucellosis, salmonellosis, listeriosis, trichinosis or taeniasis.

Taenia saginata, also known as Taeniarhynchus saginata or the beef tapeworm, is a parasite of both cattle and humans, causing taeniasis in humans.

The traditional method of demonstrating tapeworm eggs or proglottids in stool samples diagnoses only taeniasis, carriage of the tapeworm stage of the life cycle.

To date the most relevant diagnosis of taeniasis due to T. asiatica is by enzyme-linked immunoelectrotransfer blot (EITB).

Adult worms of these species develop in the small intesine of the definitive hosts (dogs, foxes, and other canids), causing a disease from the group of taeniasis.

A severe case of taeniasis can occur when the brain is infected by accidental ingestion of cysts, a clinical condition called neurocysticercosis, which is the leading cause of acquired epilepsy.

Cysticercosis should be differentiated from taeniasis: carriage of the adult tapeworm in the intestine (which is through ingestion of cysts in an intermediate host, not the ingestion of the eggs as in cysticercosis).

Taeniasis and cysticercosis are very rare in predominantly Muslim countries, as Islam forbids the consumption of pork.

The zoonotic pork tapeworm Taenia solium which causes porcine cysticercosis and human taeniasis/cysticercosis, is also an increasing public health problem in Waling area like many other parts of the country where pork is commonly consumed.
