Here we report the case of a 21-year-old woman who emigrated from Cambodia to Japan and presented with swelling of the right supraclavicular region of 2 months\u2019 duration. She had no other symptoms. Tuberculous lymphadenitis was diagnosed based on a fine-needle aspiration biopsy of the right supraclavicular lymph node. The laboratory examination revealed mild eosinophilia (eosinophils 1348\/\u00b5L).<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Hymenolepis nana<\/jats:italic> were detected serologically and in faeces examination. This case demonstrates that clinicians should search for <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic> infection in patients with tuberculosis who have epidemiological risk factors and\/or laboratory signs of eosinophilia, even if other symptoms and signs of helminths infection are less obvious.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/bcr-2017-223208","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,9]],"date-time":"2018-01-09T05:04:11Z","timestamp":1515474251000},"page":"bcr-2017-223208","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Eosinophilia, a marker of asymptomatic <i>Strongyloides<\/i> infection, in a young patient with extrapulmonary tuberculosis"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"2018","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8655-4519","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hirotomo","family":"Yamanashi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Island and Community Medicine, Nagasaki University Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, Goto, Nagasaki, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sinsuke","family":"Kanbara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Nagasaki Prefecture Goto Central Hospital, Goto, Nagasaki, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kunihiko","family":"Murase","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Nagasaki Prefecture Goto Central Hospital, Goto, Nagasaki, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Takahiro","family":"Maeda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Island and Community Medicine, Nagasaki University Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, Goto, Nagasaki, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pntd.0002288","article-title":"Strongyloides stercoralis: global distribution and risk factors","volume":"7","author":"Sch\u00e4r","year":"2013","journal-title":"PLoS Negl Trop Dis"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/322707"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/QCO.0b013e3283551dbd"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.35.7.1001"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"7","DOI":"10.1186\/2052-0492-1-7","article-title":"A case of Strongyloides hyperinfection associated with tuberculosis","volume":"1","author":"Iwashita","year":"2013","journal-title":"J Intensive Care"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.6","first-page":"CD001876","article-title":"Corticosteroids for tuberculous pleurisy","volume":"3","author":"Ryan","year":"2017","journal-title":"Cochrane Database Syst Rev"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.7","first-page":"CD002244","article-title":"Corticosteroids for managing tuberculous meningitis","volume":"4","author":"Prasad","year":"2016","journal-title":"Cochrane Database Syst Rev"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pntd.0002854","article-title":"High prevalence and spatial distribution of Strongyloides stercoralis in rural Cambodia","volume":"8","author":"Khieu","year":"2014","journal-title":"PLoS Negl Trop Dis"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-0691.2006.01500.x"},{"key":"2025082800454017000_2018.jan03_3.bcr-2017-223208.10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1584.2005.00710.x"}],"container-title":["BMJ Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/syndication.highwire.org\/content\/doi\/10.1136\/bcr-2017-223208","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,28]],"date-time":"2025-08-28T07:45:47Z","timestamp":1756367147000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/casereports.bmj.com\/lookup\/doi\/10.1136\/bcr-2017-223208"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,4]]},"references-count":10,"alternative-id":["10.1136\/bcr-2017-223208"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/bcr-2017-223208","relation":{},"ISSN":["1757-790X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1757-790X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,4]]}}}
