    Area of Science:

    • Parasitology
    • Clinical Medicine
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Visceral larva migrans (VLM) is a helminthic infection caused by larval roundworms.
    • Diagnosis can be challenging, often requiring invasive procedures.

    Observation:

    • A review of clinical records for VLM cases confirmed by laparoscopy was conducted.
    • The study was initiated due to recent patient admissions for VLM.

    Findings:

    • Laparoscopy is a key diagnostic tool for confirming visceral larva migrans.
    • Analysis of clinical data and literature provides insights into VLM presentation.

    Implications:

    • Improved understanding of VLM diagnosis and clinical presentation.
    • Potential for earlier detection and improved patient outcomes for visceral larva migrans.
