The distribution of intestinal capillariasis has been extended continuously through Asian countries. The first case in Korea was reported in 1993, and here we add 2 more cases. One case is a 41-year old man who was diagnosed by both eggs in the feces and worms in the biopsy specimen of the ileum. This case was supposedly infected in Indonesia. The other is a 78-year old man, who has not been abroad, and suffered from intractable diarrhea. He was diagnosed by eggs in the feces, and several juvenile worms were collected after anthelmintic treatment. In both cases the treatment was successful by albendazole.
肠道毛细线虫病在亚洲国家的分布范围一直在不断扩大。韩国首例病例于1993年报告，在此我们又新增2例。一例是一名41岁男性，通过粪便中的虫卵和回肠活检标本中的虫体确诊。该病例推测是在印度尼西亚感染的。另一例是一名78岁男性，未曾出过国，患有顽固性腹泻。通过粪便中的虫卵确诊，驱虫治疗后收集到几条幼虫。两例均使用阿苯达唑治疗成功。
