Popis: Enterobius vermicularis, is a helminth that mainly affects children. The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of E. vermicularis in 70 preschoolers in Jipijapa, Ecuador. A single child was identified with the helminth; this can be attributed to the Albendazole treatment that school children receive regularly in the country
