  • Title: [Fulminant amebic colitis and ameboma in the same patient].
    Author: Escalante R, González U, Peñaloza de Escalante L.
    Journal: G E N; 1990; 44(2):155-8. PubMed ID: 2152271.
    Abstract:
    Fulminant amebic colitis is an infrequent complication of amebiasis with a high mortality rate. The presence of a tumoral mass caused by ameba (ameboma) in the rectum or the colon is also of rare occurrence and can cause diagnostic difficulties. We report the case of a pregnant 27 year old patient with the association of both pathologies.
