Abstract:
:Among the wide variety of clinicopathological manifestations of intestinal amebiasis, amebomas occur rarely and their pathogenesis is not well understood. When cholesterol-fed, 2- to 4-week-old guinea pigs were infected intracecally with a virulent, monoaxenic strain of Entamoeba histolytica, gross and histologically characteristic amebomas developed in 85% of the animals by the 3rd day, in 94% by the 9th day, and in 96% by the 12th day postinfection, by which time most of them had died. Amebomas were confirmed by histopathology. Thus, a model of consistent production of amebomas was documented.
