Abstract:
We report a case of strongyloides infection in a 72-year-old man presenting with acute angio-oedema and urticaria. He was also found to have natural killer cell (NK) large granular lymphocytosis (LGL). We discuss the possible relationship between the strongyloides infection and the NK-LGL lymphocytosis.
