Danger from the whipworm. P. Bonem (Klin. W., 1927, no. 40)
That the whipworm (trichocephalus dispar) can be a very dangerous guest of the human intestine is shown by the case reported by Dr. P. Bonem. A 54 year old woman was admitted to the Stuttgart City Hospital in June 1927 for diagnosis, who at the end of winter had an apparently unexplained anemia. Besides the usual signs of the latter, the examination revealed numerous hemorrhages in the skin, and in the feces many eggs of the whipworm and stringworm.
