| combined sarcocystis and gram-positive bacterial infections. a possible cause of segmental enterocolitis in thailand. | between 1981 and 1990, 22 intestinal specimens surgically resected due to segmental enterocolitis were collected and examined. grossly, the specimens were classified into 3 groups 1) acute inflammation with hemorrhage and necrosis 2) constrictive lesion 3) false diverticulum with perforation. mostly, there was unisegmental involvement, distributed in jejunum, ileum and ileocolon. microscopically, small parasitic structures, interpreted to be unconventional excystation stage of sarcocystis homini ... | 1992 | 1402481 |
| human intestinal sarcosporidiosis: report of six cases. | specimens of resected small intestine from six patients aged 3 to 70 years with acute enteritis contained sexual forms of sarcosporidia. histopathologically, the diagnoses were either segmental eosinophilic enteritis or segmental necrotizing enteritis. the presence of sarcosporidia in market beef (bos indicus), and the patients' habit of eating the beef uncooked in the form of chili-hot dishes, suggest that the species is an ox-man parasite similar to sarcocystis hominis (railliet and lucet, 189 ... | 1982 | 6800273 |
| characterization of bovine sarcocystis species by analysis of their 18s ribosomal dna sequences. | two sarcocystis hirsuta isolates from 2 cattle (bos taurus), 2 sarcocystis hominis-like isolates from 2 cattle, 1 each sarcocystis hominis-like isolate from a zoo-born dwarf zebu (b. taurus) and from a zoo-born bison (bison bison), and 1 each sarcocystis cruzi isolate from the dwarf zebu and the bison have been characterized by comparing the directly sequenced polymerase chain reaction products of their 18s rrna genes. sequences of 2 different isolates from the same species always showed a very ... | 1998 | 9488337 |
