| Abstract: | A widespread intestinal parasite of humans, Strongyloides stercoralis has long been considered very difficult to control in endemic communities. This situation is now changing. In this article, David Conway, John Lindo, Ralph Robinson and Don Bundy review recent advances in diagnosis, chemotherapy and epidemiology of S. stercoralis infection, and highlight new options for control. |
