Background: Strongyloies stercoralis infection is common in tropical and humid areas worldwide. However, strongyloidiasis caused by Strongyloies stercoralis infection is often neglected in clinic. We report a misdiagnosed case of Strongyloies stercoralis infected female patient who had been admitted to four different hospitals for treatment, she eventually died upon Strongyloies stercoralis hyperinfection with pulmonary infection involved. Methods: Retrospective review and analysis of patient’s medical examination results including laboratory test, imaging, as well as medical history and treatment course were performed. Results: The patient’s clinical presentations, imaging results of the lungs, numerous Strongyloies Stercoralis larvae and eggs found in the stool, increased eosenophil count in peripheral blood, and elevated serological IgE level were evidences of Strongyloies stercoralis hyperinfection. Conclusion: The patient was infected with Strongyloies Stercoralis and died from the hyperinfection after long term use of immunosuppressive agents.
