[A disseminated strongyloidiasis in a non immunocompromised patient].

Strongyloidiasis is a parasitosis mainly located in tropical and subtropical regions. Its European incidence is increasing due to population migration. The symptomatology is variable, largely depending on the host immune status. The diagnosis may be challenging as a specific inquiry is needed. The disseminated status, called hyperinfection syndrome, is a life-threatening disease that might occur in immunosuppressed patients. The patient's chances for a successful outcome depend on a quick and specific management. The treatment is based on anthelminthic agents such as ivermectine or albendazole for which the dosage will vary according to the infection type.
