We report a case of chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction due to a generalized visceral autonomic neuropathy in an immune-competent patient infected with . The patient had immigrated to the United States from Sierra Leone in childhood but had not returned for decades. His symptoms resolved with ivermectin treatment. Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion for strongyloidiasis in any patient with abdominal complaints and a history of travel to endemic areas, even if the travel history is remote.
我们报告一例免疫功能正常的感染 的患者因广泛性内脏自主神经病变导致慢性肠道假性梗阻的病例。该患者童年时从塞拉利昂移民到美国,几十年来未曾回去过。他的症状经伊维菌素治疗后缓解。对于任何有腹部不适且有疫区旅行史的患者,即使旅行史久远,临床医生都应高度怀疑类圆线虫病。
