Systemic Corticosteroid Therapy

A case of massive Ancylostoma sp. larval infestation is presented in a patient who had received systemic corticosteroid therapy. What attracts attention in this case is the exuberance and rarity of clinical manifestation. Based on the pertinent literature, we discuss the mechanisms of parasital infection, the natural history of the disease and its treatment.

Blind Trials

Since the usefulness of topical corticosteroids in the treatment of ulcerative colitis was first reported1 double-blind trials have confirmed their effectiveness, and they are now widely used.2 For disease localised to the rectum suppositories, and for more extensive disease, retention enemas containing various corticosteroids are available (see table). In severe cases these preparations also valuably supplement systemic corticosteroid therapy, with or without sulphasalazine (Salazopyrin).
