Abstract
A 2-year-old boy presented with massive hematemesis and hematochezia for 1 day; an ascarid was removed from his jejunum at laparotomy. Multiple duodenal and jejunal mucosal erosions were found on panendoscopy through an enterotomy. The causes of mucosal erosions made by ascarids are discussed briefly.Entities:
