Abstract
Urticaria affects 15-25% of people at least once in their life time. There is limited research about urticaria relations of parasitosis, the majority consisting of case reports. Current studies show that other parasitic infections are more frequently observed in the etiology of urticaria, whereas the incidence of Entamoeba histolytica is quite low. Here we present four recent cases of Entamoeba histolytica which its diagnosis was made in routine stool microscopy in urticaria. Three patients had no gastrointestinal symptoms, by the treatment of Entamoeba histolytica three patients’ urticaria have regressed, one patient was referred to the infectious diseases clinic because of chronic renal failure.
