Its prevalence is high in tropics and sub-tropics due to poor sanitation and hygiene. However, its true prevalence is not well known in Ethiopia as most health institutions use low sensitive diagnostic methods. This review aimed to determine the pooled prevalence of\n                    <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic>\n                    at country, and regional state levels. Papers published on\n                    <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic>\n                    in Ethiopia from 2010 to 2020 were collected from PubMed, Google Scholar and Science direct databases and Addis Ababa repository. Identification, screening, checking the eligibility, and inclusion of the relevant literatures were done. Articles with\n                    <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic>\n                    positive results from Ethiopian populations were included. Articles which focused on\n                    <jats:italic>Strongyloides<\/jats:italic>\n                    infection in foreigners, and other than stool samples were excluded. The pooled prevalence of\n                    <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic>\n                    and heterogeneity between studies and across regions were computed. From the 43 articles, the overall prevalence of\n                    <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic>\n                    in Ethiopia was 1.82 %. Across regions, relatively high prevalence of\n                    <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic>\n                    (8.78 %) was recorded in Addis Ababa city. High prevalence of\n                    <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic>\n                    was found to be 44.02 % with a combination of formol ether concentration, Baermann concentration, and molecular methods. Low prevalence of 0.26 %, 0.31 %, and 1.20 % was evidenced respectively with Kato-Katz, direct saline microscopy, and formol ether concentration methods. Using random effect analysis, the pooled prevalence of\n                    <jats:italic>S. stercoralis<\/jats:italic>\n                    in Ethiopia, across regions and across diagnostic methods was 2.1 % (95 %CI: 1.20 \u2013 3.60), 2.6 % (95 %CI: 0.80 \u2013 8.20) and 3.7 % (95 %CI: 1.10 \u2013 11.70), respectively. The heterogeneity was high (\n                    <jats:italic>P&lt;0.001<\/jats:italic>\n                    ). This review revealed that\n                    <jats:italic>Strongyloides<\/jats:italic>\n                    infection is probably underreported and its prevalence could be higher than the reported in Ethiopia.
