This paper describes the first Malaysian case of oesophagostomiasis. The patient was an 8-year-old Malay boy who presented to Ipoh General Hospital, Perak with abdominal pain and weight loss.

The differential diagnoses and the pathology caused by Oesophagostomum are discussed. A brief review of the available literature is presented.
