We report the clinical features observed in 10 children, ranging from 5 1/12 to 13 7/12 years of age, with intestinal infections caused by Blastocystis hominis. A parasitological study of the stools was made by using the ethyl-acetate formol concentration technique and a count of the number of B. hominis per field was performed. In 8 of the cases, no other enteropathogens (viruses, bacteria or other parasites) were found, whereas in 2 cases Giardia lamblia was also isolated. Nine out of ten of the patients presented with abdominal pain. In three of the cases it appeared as a pseudo-appendicular ailment which led to an appendectomy. Those children who were treated with metronidazole and those who were not treated with antibiotic recovered satisfactorily.
我们报告了10名年龄在5又1/12至13又7/12岁之间、由人芽囊原虫引起肠道感染的儿童的临床特征。采用乙酸乙酯甲酚紫浓缩技术对粪便进行寄生虫学研究，并对每个视野中的人芽囊原虫数量进行计数。8例未发现其他肠道病原体（病毒、细菌或其他寄生虫），而2例还分离出了蓝氏贾第鞭毛虫。10名患者中有9名出现腹痛。其中3例表现为类似阑尾炎的病症并接受了阑尾切除术。接受甲硝唑治疗的儿童和未接受抗生素治疗的儿童均恢复良好。
