Frotis de tejido del intestino delgado - Results

Valores normales:

Un resultado normal significa que no se encontraron cambios ni sustancias patógenas en la muestra al examinarla bajo el microscopio.

Sin embargo, el intestino delgado normalmente contiene ciertas bacterias y levaduras saludables y su presencia no es un signo de enfermedad.

Los rangos de los valores normales pueden variar ligeramente entre diferentes laboratorios. Hable con el médico acerca del significado de los resultados específicos de su examen.

Significado de los resultados anormales:

Un resultado anormal significa que se observaron ciertos microorganismos, como los parásitos Giardia o Strongyloides, en la muestra tisular o que hubo cambios en la estructura (anatomía) del tejido.
