The authors described the clonorchiasis focus in the Vietnam province at the seaside delta of the Red River where the aforementioned invasion was accompanied with multiple invasions with intestinal nematodes. Clonorchiasis infestation rate was 28.4% ascaridiasis, 50.5%, trichocephaliasis, 21.3% ancylostomiasis, 7.0%. Clonorchiasis invasion was the result of consumed uncooked carp fish in the salad. It was revealed that the fish was reared in the ponds near the settlements and was fed untreated human and animal feces. The meal was more common among the male persons in the presence of the alcohol intake. Clinical symptoms of the mixed clonorchiasis and intestinal nematodiasis invasion was featured by pains, dyspepsia and the asthenoneurotic syndrome.

The authors described the focus of intestinal nematodiasis in Vietnam with the rate of infestation on the average 74.6% for ascaridiasis, 30.8 for trichocephaliasis and 20.2% for ancylostomiasis. The high rate of the geohelminthic infestation was related with the use of untreated feces for the vegetables rearing. The clinical symptoms of intestinal nematodiasis were featured by dyspepsia, pain and asthenoneurotic syndromes. The first field trials of mediamine treatment were performed for 267 patients in the high-intense foci of intestinal nematodiasis in the tropics. In trichocephaliasis patients therapeutic efficacy of the drug was 74%, in ancylostomiasis patients it was 71.9, in ascaridiasis patients 68.4%. Retrograde ascarid migration was noted in two patients.

A prospective study of the stool samples of 129 rural patients with symptoms of upper abdominal pain, tenderness and indigestion was carried out from 2 February 1998 to 31 December 1998 and followed up to June 1999. The age range was 11-85 years, female:male ratio 2.4:1: 102 specimens were positive for helminths--Ancylostoma duodenale (hookworm) 80 (62%); Trichuris trichuria (threadworm) 12 (9.3%); Ascaris lumbricoides (large roundworm) 10 (7.76%); Strongyloides stercoralis three (2.3%); Taenia saginata (tapeworm) three (2.3%). The female:male ratio for hookworm was 3:1. Treatment with appropriate anthelminthic agents were given serially at each visit according to the result of faecal examination. At 6 months follow up 88 patients were free of symptoms, 60 of which were caused by helminths the hookworm group. Stool 'test and treat' strategy appears to be a cost-effective approach in the management of these patients.
