[Anguilluliasis of the small intestine and AIDS. A case and review of the literature].

The authors report about one patient with an Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) presenting with strongyloidiasis involving the small bowel. On the basis of this observation, they describe the appearances of small bowel involvement by strongyloidiasis in patients with AIDS. They emphasize the main features differentiating these cases from the usual affection, namely the severity and diffusion of the lesions, as well as the presence of a very extensive associated lymphoid nodular hyperplasia.
