Abstract
We describe an HIV-positive female patient who had acute abdominal pain as the initial presentation of Strongyloides stercoralis infection. The diagnosis was established by identifying rhabditiform larvae in stool. She also had intra-abdominal tuberculosis without intestinal perforation. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of such a presentation.
