摘要
We report 4 cases of adults patients, suffering from irritable bowel syndrome, which had been attributed late to toxocariasis and for whom the treatment led to recovery. Hypereosinophilia was present only in 3 cases. These cases show that toxocariasis is not limited anymore to ifs two classical expressions: visceral larva migrans and ocular toxocariasis. So it ir;useful to think of if to confirm and treat it in the case of patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome. This enables shorter diagnosis delay (14 months in average for our patients) and this is essential for therapeutic efficiency.
