Core Tip |
Intraperitoneal Paragonimus without lung involvement can be misdiagnosed for tuberculous peritonitis, even with a negative stool test and normal eosinophil counts. In this case, a positive result on the preoperative serum antibody test for P. westmani may help patients recall history of crustacean consumption and prevent unnecessary surgery. |
