[Anisakiasis, rare pseudotumor colonic involvement. Apropos of a case].

History taking should search for intake of raw or uncooked fish in patients with acute abdominal symptoms. The colon is an uncommon localization of anisakiasis. We describe the case of a 31-year-old man with acute abdominal pain whose abdominal CT scan showed a pseudotumoral formation of the colon. History taking and endoscopic ablation gave the diagnosis of anisakiasis. Whole worm extraction led to restituo ad integrum or the colonic wall.
