| Abstract |
|
Cestodes, or tapeworms, are segmented worms. The most commonly found tapeworms in the human body are
Diphyllobothrium latum, Taenia saginata, and Taenia solium. The adult worms reside in the gastrointestinal tract, but
the larvae can be found in almost any organ. The small bowel is the usual site of the adult taenia, while the stomach is not.
We describe a case of a 75-year-old woman with a gastric ulcer and cestode infection in the stomach with a review
of the literature.(Korean J Med 73:S1066-S1070, 2007) |
| Key Words:
Gastric ulcer, Cestode infection |
