Abstract
We report a case of the endoscopic discovery and removal of a specimen of Necator americanus hooked into the gastric mucosa of a black woman from Zaire. We extracted the parasite by means of biopsy forceps. Signs of previous bites were seen in the antrum. This exceptional localization might be due to a jejuno-duodeno-gastric reflux.Entities:
