Abstract
This study was focused on the diagnosis of some intestinal parasites in patients attending the General Reference Hospital of Kintambo. The results showed that, among the causative agents of these pathologies, protozoa were diagnosed in large numbers, with the genus Antamoeba. Helminths were dominated by Ascaris lumbricoides.These results confirm that intestinal parasitosis remains a public health problem in the Democratic Republic of Congo in general and in Kinshasa in particular.This situation is explained by the absence of personal hygiene (washing of hands, cleanliness of food), good management of faecal peril which had to go through the installation of latrines, sewers and treatment of waste water.
