We report a case of Entamoeba histolytica infection in a young man who presented with cerebral infarction and shortly after admission developed bloody diarrhea with fever. A rapid diagnosis of severe E. histolytica colitis was established through the use of a multiplex polymerase chain reaction enteropathogen stool panel. This result was unexpected in a patient native to the United States without known risk factors for amebiasis and negative stool microscopy examination for ova and parasites. Rapid diagnosis allowed prompt initiation of appropriate anti-amebic therapy and ultimately a good outcome in a condition that otherwise carries high morbidity and fatality.
