dc.description.abstract | Ascariasis is one of the most common worldwide helminthic disease that may cause various complications. The presence of this worm in the biliary tree, however, is a rare condition, especially in children. We describe a child with biliary ascariasis who was presenting clinical symptoms mimicking surgical acute abdomen. The diagnosis was made by ultrasound. The child was successfully treated with mebendazole and antispasmolytic. Biliary ascariasis should be added to the differential diagnosis of acute abdominal pain in patients, even in children, from endemic areas. | en_US |
