A C Sane1, B A Barber.   

Abstract

Infection with Toxocara canis is well described in the pediatric literature but is reported less commonly in adults. We report a case of T canis infection manifested as abdominal pain with diarrhea, eosinophilia, and diffuse noncavitating nodules in an immunocompetent adult.
