Popis: We present the case of a 53 year old woman living in a rural area and which suffered from gastric pain and high blood eosinophil polymorphonuclear counts for several years. The parasitological stool examination showed Trichostrongylus sp. larvae and eggs. Clinical and biological signs resolved after 2 courses of treatment with albendazole. We also report the microscopic difficulties to identify Ankylostomidae eggs.
