Round worm causes all, except :: (A) Obstructive jaundice, (B) Pancreatitis, (C) Intestinal obstruction, (D) Intestinal perforation
Answer is D. A large Round worm burden can lead to malnutrition and weakness, and a mass of worms may lead to bowel obstruction. Wandering ascaris also traverse internal organs rarely leading to biliary obstruction, hepatic abscess, acute pancreatitis, acute appendicitis, or hypersensitivity pneumonitis. It does not cause intestinal perforation. Ref :VanRooyen M.J., Venugopal R. (2011). Chapter 156. World Travelers. In R.K. Cydulka, G.D.
