Description This report, we present a unique case of chronic hydropneumothorax with pulmonary infection caused by Enterobius vermicularis. The patient, a 55-year-old Chinese man, presented with a persistent cough and shortness of breath for over 5 months. Following a thoracoscopic pathological biopsy, histopathology of the parietal pleura indicated eosinophil infiltration, which was subsequently confirmed by high-throughput sequencing as Enterobius vermicularis.
