Rare Enterobius vermicularis infection of the greater omentum misdiagnosed as schistosomiasis: a case report

This case underscores the critical role of accurate morphological identification in distinguishing parasitic infections. Misdiagnosis, even in non-schistosomiasis-endemic areas, reflects insufficient training in parasitic morphology among healthcare professionals. Enhanced training on the morphology of common parasites and interpretation of paraffin-embedded histological sections is essential to improve diagnostic accuracy.
