The adult worms were most commonly found in the liver, less often in the lungs, heart, pancreas and tissues of the intestines. 3. 3. The microfilariae were most numerous in the lung vessels and heart chambers and heart muscle; in these situations they appeared to be healthy. 4. 4. Massive destruction of microfilariae was constantly observed in the liver associated with varying degrees of cellular response.
