Anisakiasis of the colon: report of two cases with emphasis on the diagnostic and therapeutic value of colonoscopy.
1991
: Anisakiasis of the colon is a rare entity as compared with gastric anisakiasis, and its diagnosis is very difficult. We present here two cases--a 42-year-old woman and a 30-year-old woman--of anisakiasis of the colon treated by colonoscopic removal of the worm without surgery. The importance of colonoscopy for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease is briefly discussed.
