AbstractExamination of 182 appendices containing Enterobius vermicularis demonstrated that male pinworms are seen more commonly than female. There was no association between the sex of pinworms and inflammation in the appendix but inflammation was frequently seen in association with luminal ova. Ova release from female pinworms may be a feature of appendiceal obstruction.
