What are the tests for enterobiasis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pinworms: Scotch tape applied to the anus early in the morning will and examined microscopically will detect the eggs in 50% with one exam and >90% with three exams. Sometimes this can be suspected by white thread-like things in stool, but this is not adequate by itself.
