ABSTRACT
The effect of oxibendazole treatment on adult Ascaris suum was assessed using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The changes included collapse of the lip papillae; rupture of buccal cavity cuticle; prolapse of the pharynx; degeneration of epithelial cells and erosion of microvilli. Theses changes may lead to impaired digestion and absorption of nutrients and cause cellular autolysis; resulting in the death of the worm
