title: [Chronic intestinal ischemia after migration of larvae in ascaridiasis (author's transl)].
abstract: A case report is given of a 25 year old turkish patient, who had ascaridiasis and multiple stenoses of the small intestine. This syndrome was caused by extensive obliterating phlebitis of the small mesenterial veins and sclerosing lymphadenitis of the mesenterial lymph nodes. Granuloma containing epitheloid cells and giant cells could be found in the venous walls and in the lymph nodes, some of the granuloma being grouped around atrophic ascarides larvae; this demonstrates, that the intestinal stenoses represent an unusual complication of larvae migration in this worm disease. Perforation of the intestinal wall in one these stenotic areas possibly was caused by ascarides worms actively.
