title: Syngamosis: two new Brazilian cases and evidence of a possible pulmonary cycle.
abstract: Cases of syngamosis due to Mammomanogamus laryngeus are reported, with a discussion of diagnostic aspects. A pulmonary cycle for M. laryngeus is proposed, suggested by the appearance of a transient area of homogeneous consolidation of the lung, detected by X-ray.
