Strongyloidiasis – diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas in hyperinfection patients: a case series
Journal of Helminthology, 2022The helminth infection caused by Strongyloides stercoralis is widespread in tropical regions, but rare in European countries. Unfamiliarity with the disease and diagnostic obstacles could contribute to its lethal outcome.

Strongyloides stercoralis: Hyperinfection in immunosuppressed dogs
Experimental Parasitology, 1984Hyperinfective strongyloidiasis involving the threadworm , Strongyloides stercoralis, is well known in humans and primates. Although this nematode also frequently parasitizes dogs, canine hyperinfective strongyloidiasis has not been reported. To determine whether a fulminant pattern of nematode development can occur in dogs, and to test the S ...

Co-occurrence of paracoccidioidomycosis and strongyloidiasis in immunosuppressed patients, particularly those infected with human T-lymphotropic virus type 1/2, is infrequent. We describe the case of a Peruvian farmer from the central jungle with human T-

Strongyloides stercoralis hyperinfection causing eosinophilic ascites
Diagnostic Cytopathology, 2015Strongyloidiasis is associated with Strongyloides stercoralis, an intestinal nematode with greater prevalence in tropical and subtropical regions. Hyperinfection syndrome with dissemination may occur in immunosuppressed individuals. However, invasion of peritoneal cavity with peritoneal effusion is rarely reported in the literature. We report a case of

Strongyloides stercoarlis--hyperinfection.
The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 1978A case of severe Strongyloides stercoralis infection is described in a patient with renal failure due to bilateral cortical necrosis. Because thiabendazole, the drug of choice in strongyloidiasis, is primarily excreted by the kidneys, alternative therapy with a mebendazole was instituted.

Fatal Stongyloides Hyperinfection in Heart Transplantation
The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 2005S stercoralis is an intestinal parasite that normally causes a chronic, low-grade, mostly asymptomatic infection. Hyperinfection syndrome and dissemination, with secondary sepsis, may occur in immunosuppressed patients, especially those on corticosteroid therapy.

[Strongyloides stercoralis hyperinfection].
Harefuah, 1996Strongyloides stercoralis (SS) is an intestinal nematode which infects a large proportion of tropical and subtropical populations. The endemic areas are southeast Asia, South America and sub-Saharan Africa. Infection is acquired when the worms penetrate the skin, pass via the blood stream to the lungs, ascend the respiratory tract, are swallowed and ...
