From strongyloidiasis to disseminated mucormycosis: the story of an HTLV-1 infected migrant
Résumé
Strongyloidiasis manifestations range from asymptomatic cases to the life-threatening disseminated strongyloidiasis in case of immune deficiency: larvae migrate throughout the body, disseminating germs from the digestive flora to various organs. Here, we described a case of disseminated mucormycosis consecutive to S. stercoralis hyperinfestation, in a Surinamese migrant infected with HTLV-1.
