    Molecular identification of <i>Pentatrichomonas hominis</i> in two patients with gastrointestinal symptoms

    No full text
    The trichomonad species Pentatrichomonas hominis colonises the gastrointestinal tract and is generally considered as a commensal organism in humans. However, some studies have recognised an association between diarrhoea and P. hominis infection in dogs and cats. In the present report, we have identified this species using molecular tools in two patients with gastrointestinal troubles. Our data suggest that P. hominis is a possible zoonotic species with a significant potential of transmission by water and could be the causative agent of intestinal symptoms in children

    A new Tetratrichomonas species was identified by molecular and phylogenetic approaches in the pleural fluid from a patient with encysted empyema leading to dyspnea. This observation raised the questions of the real prevalence of pulmonary trichomonosis in humans, the zoonotic potential of trichomonads, and the existence of human-host-adapted strains
