Extract

Methods of treatment of trichinosis have been reviewed by van Someren (1938), and it was stated that no experimentally confirmed therapeutic measure had yet been found for the treatment of this disease by destruction of the nematodes in the body. In an attempt to discover a satisfactory chemotherapeutic measure, an experimental trial was made of an anthelminthic “Butolan” (Bayer), which has been shown to give very satisfactory results in cases of oxyuriasis, and in some ascariasis infections.
