[Pulmonary paragonimiasis in a Gabonese child (author's transl)]. 1980

F Deméocq, and P Déchelotte, and A F Pétavy, and M Cambon

A five year old child from Gabon is described to have developed pulmonary paragonimiasis. Despite two courses of treatment with bithionol (10 mg/kg given on alternate days for 20 days) the child relapsed. Thus larger doses may be needed.
