Improved diagnosis of strongyloides stercoralis by seven consecutive stool specimens. 1987

P B Nielsen, and M Mojon

Seven consecutive stool cultures have been used in order to diagnose strongyloidiasis. The study took place in the follow up period after treatment and seventy patients participated. The diagnostic sensitivity of the seven consecutive cultures compared to a single examination was increased from two to five times.
