Strongyloidosis was induced by percutaneous injection of rabbits; then organ changes were tested. It has been found that Strongyloides papillosus evoked changes in intestine, liver, kidney and lung. No notable changes were found in heart, spleen and suprarenal gland. These changes may be provoked not only directly by the presence of these parasites but also by the products of metabolism of S. papillosus.
