Intestinal parasitic infections in homosexual men at a San Francisco health fair.

E K Markell, R F Havens, R A Kuritsubo.   

Abstract

In a sample of homosexual men attending a San Francisco Bay Area health fair, there were strikingly higher prevalence rates of intestinal parasitic infections compared with rates in a control group of health plan members who had a routine multiphasic health examination. Physicians treating homosexual men must be aware of the likelihood of such infections, whether or not the patients are symptomatic.
