title: [Larva migrans syndrome: a rare differential asthma diagnosis].
abstract: We report a case of sudden-onset bronchospasm which developed in a 68-year-old patient. Peripheral eosinophila suggested several possible diagnoses. Positive serology for Toxocara canis and clinical and radiological regression without treatment were particularly noteworthy.
