A case is described concerning an adult male whose work create a risk for infestation by Giardia. The patient had a long history of diarrhea with malabsorption which was resistant to the common therapies. Only after a EGDS examination the diagnostic possibility of infestation by parasites could be proposed; this was confirmed by means of ultrastructural examination of biopsy material. The Authors suggest that in case of inexplicable malabsorption and/or chronic diarrhea, one must always take into consideration in differential diagnosis the possibility of an infestation by Giardia especially when there is a history which could be suggestive for such an infestation (immunodeficiency, homosexuality, frequent trips to foreign countries).
