Abstract

Filariform larvae of Strongyloides stercoralis were found by cytologic examination in Papanicolaou-stained smears of ascitic fluid in a renal transplant recipient treated with immunosuppressive drugs. The patient developed a fatal hyperinfection of S. stercoralis produced by an autoinfective cycle of the parasite.
