[Parasites, etiologic agents of diarrhea in AIDS. Significance of duodenal aspiration fluid test].
A research was made on one hundred cases of diarrhoeas in Aids-patients by stool examination including examination of duodenal aspirated liquid. Concerning the examination of duodenal fluid, we founded the parasites in almost one hundred patients of the cases. Among parasites observed, Isospora belli was the most frequent (20% of cases), followed by Cryptosporidium (15%). Strongyloides stercoralis represented 10% of the cases. The majority of other parasites was miscellaneous protozoa and some helminths.
