Wiersma, G. Hadley, F. Luvuno] Experience with 56 children with amoebiasis referred for surgical management is presented. Twenty-four patients had predominantly colitic disease and 32 hepatic; 3 of the 56 had both organs affected. Based on this experience an attempt is made to define therapeutic options in children. The relative roles of colonic resection and peroperative prograde colonic irrigation in the treatment of colitis and the indications for aspiration of hepatic abscesses are discussed. The pathology is outlined. Springer-Verlag, 1990 Amoeba nationallicence Amoebiasis nationallicence Amoebic colitis nationallicence Amoebic liver abscess nationallicence Wiersma R.
