Abstract
| - Summary. Two hundred cases have been studied from April, 1936 to November, 1937, to detect the infestation with intestinal parasites. The age of the cases studied varies from 5 days to II years. The incidence of parasite was more common in the second half of the year. The youngest child harbouring the parasite was 7 months old. The commonest parasite was giardia lamblia and next the ascaris lumbricoides; trichomonas infestation is abnormally high in comparison to the incidence in other countries.
