V K Leung1, C T Liew, J J Sung.   

Abstract

With rising frequency of immuno suppression particularly due to use of various immuno suppressive agents and increasing incidence of human immuno deficiency virus infection, incidence of opportunistic infection due to various parasites are also on the rise. Persistent strongyloides stercoralis infection which normally also infects healthy individuals is documented in a case of hypogammaglobulinemia reported in the present paper emphasizing it to be another potential opportunistic infection which one may encounter in near future.
