The first case ; Male, 26 years old, employee. Shimizu city, Shizuoka prefecture. Chief complaints : stomachache, nausea, anorexia and slight fever since a few years ago. The general condition was rather good. The results of examinations of both urine and blood were almost normal. No helminth ova were found, but occult blood was positive in the fecal examination. Gastrectomy was carried out under the diagnosis of gastric ulcer. A cherry-sized and localized tumor was found at Pylorus of the stomach. Eosinophilic abscess surrounded with eosinophilic granulation in submucosa of the stomach, and two or three transverse sections of the parasite in the center of this abscess were observed histophathologically. The worm sections were examined morphologically. From the morphological characters of the cuticular spines, intestine and the other organs of this parasite, it was identified as the larva of 4-5 mm in length of Gnathostoma spinigerum Owen, 1836.
