Cryptosporidiosis in young children suffering from diarrhoea in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
J Hyg Epidemiol Microbiol Immunol. 1992; 36(4):396-400.JH

Abstract

A one-year study of patients (0-120 months of age) with diarrhoea at King Abdel-Aziz University Hospital (KAUH) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, detected two cases of cryptosporidiosis. Stool specimens from 174 children with diarrhoea and negative for other parasitic infection were examined using a safranin-methylene blue stain (S-MB). Two children (L.1%) were showing Cryptosporidium oocysts. None of 50 control children who did not have diarrhoea and was free of Giardia lamblia was Cryptosporidium positive.
