Résumé

In order to evaluate the principal characteristics of the intestinal amoebiasis in the north of Tunisia, one retrospective study review all cases diagnosed in principal gastroenterologic sections of the hospitals of Tunis. Twenty height cases of intestinal amoebiasis, 10 of which have an inflammatory bowel disease associated were included. Watery stools containing blood and mucus were the most important symptoms (25 cases). The endoscopic exam showed for all the cases non specific lesions. The diagnosis was based on histologic exam in 21 cases, on the positivity of serologic tests in 3 cases and on the presence of E. histolytica/dispar cysts in stools in 6 cases. In two cases, the diagnosis was made by therapeutic test.
