Enterobiasis must be differentiated from threadworm infections like taeniasis, hymenolepiasis, and schistosomiasis.

Threadworms	Infections	Suggestive findings	Diagnostic approach	Treatment
Taenia solium and Taenia sagginata	Taeniasis	Nausea Vomiting Epigastric pain	Stool examination for the eggs and proglottids Brain CT scan or Biopsy (for cystesarcosis)	Praziquantal
Hymenolepis nana	Hymenolepiasis	Nausea Vomiting Abdominal pain Dizziness	Stool examination for the eggs and proglottids	Praziquantal
(Schistosoma japonicum and Schistosoma mansoni) Schistosoma haematobium)	Schistosomiasis	Abdominal pain Cough Diarrhea Fever Fatigue	Stool examination for the eggs USG liver	Praziquantal
