Parasite Case of the Week 14
Welcome back to the Parasite Case of the Week! I post a new case every Monday, along with the answer to the previous week’s case. Here is our new case for this week.
The following organisms were found in a patient who presented with abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea, and a recent travel history to Mexico. They measure approximately 15 to 20 microns in greatest dimension. How should this be identified when using the stool ova and parasite examination alone?
