Strongyloides stercoralis is an intestinal nematode, endemic in tropical countries. The parasite has a complex life cycle, causing a long-lived auto infection in hosts. It may remain asymptomatic or with minor symptoms; the dormant carrier state of the illness may persist for a long period of time.
