stercoralis
● Method of
transmission :
autoinfection
21

● Diagnosis :
- Itch, especially at night-time
(nocturnal itching)
- History of infection on members of the

- Treat every contact person
- Correct drug administration
- Washing clothes and towels with hot water,
air mattress under the sun
- Avoid excess treatment 35
