Abstract
The sera of six patients infected with Trichinella spiralis were studied for the presence of circulating immune complexes (CIC). CIC were present in all six patients studied 1 month after infection. In two patients in whom serial serum samples were available, as clinical improvement occurred there was a decrease in the level of CIC and an increase in the fluorescent antibody titres.
