title: [Reversibility of the effects of general anesthetics on Schistosoma mansoni].
abstract: In order to verify whether the migration of Schistosoma mansoni from mesenteric vessels towards the liver under the action of general anesthetics (althesin, ether, enflurane, halothane, propanidid and thiopental sodium) is reversible, 65 mice were submitted to an anaesthetic and then perfused after dissection 24 hours later. The Schistosoma counts from porto-mesenteric vessels of the mice from control groups (60 mice) were compared with those of the mice under experiment. The counts from the hepatic area of the groups were also compared. No significant difference in the counts in the mice under experiment and those of control groups was noted.
