    Journal: Acta Cytol; 1980; 24(1):36-9. PubMed ID: 6986735.
    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.
