Overview
Surgery
Some of the indications for the surgical management of ascariasis include:[1]
- Complete intestinal obstruction with inadequate decompression
- Lack of response within 24-48 hrs of medical management of obstruction
- Complications such as volvulus, intussusception or intestinal perforation
- Acute appendicitis
- Worms trapped in ducts
- Liver invasion by worms
Surgical therapy
Hepatobiliary ascariasis
The surgical management for hepatobiliary infestation with ascaris include:[2]
- Endoscopic management: This entails endoscopic extraction of the worm
- Laparoscopic management: This often entails laparoscopic cholecystectomy, common bile duct exploration with parasite extraction, and T-tube placement.
Intestinal obstruction due to ascariasis
Intestinal obstruction from ascariasis can be surgically managed via the following methods:[3][1]
- External "milking" of the obstructing bolus of worms from the ileum into the colon
- Enterotomy to manually extract the worms
- Intestinal resection and end-to-end anastomosis if necessary
