The study was done in Al- Najaf Health Department \ Alforat Al-Awsat Hospital. The
total number of examined patients were (80) for both sexes (males and females) in different ages
(children's and adults). The chosen patients had single infection with Entamoeba histolytica was
diagnosed in 32(40%) stool samples from the total number examined. The results showed no
significant differences between males (40%) and females (40%) in tested with parasites. The
samples were recorded the average percentage in the cyst stages of E. histolytica at a higher rate,
where it reached (87.5%) than the trophozoite stage of E. histolytica, where it reached (12.5%).
There were significant differences at the level of p <0.05 when studying the effect of E.
histolytica parasite in both stages (cyst and trophozoite) in some blood parameters (PCV,
Lymphocyte, Granulocyte and Platelets count). Also, results showed a significant differences
only in the cyst stage in (MCV, MCH and Monocyte) and there were no significant differences
in the other blood parameters (Hb, WBC, RBCand MCHC) among the infected and non-infected
person with E.histolytica parasite.
