Trichomonads Found Outside the Urogenital Tract of Humans

  • Chapter
Trichomonads Parasitic in Humans

Abstract

The trichomonad species found outside the urogenital tract of humans are Trichomonas vaginalis, which, under certain circumstances, can establish itself in a variety of sites; Trichomonas tenax, found typically in the oral cavity, but presumably also in other sites; Pentatrichomonas hominis, inhabiting the large intestine of humans and various other mammals; and Trichomitus fecalis, which has been reported from only one person and which may not be primarily a parasite of humans.1 The last species will not be discussed in this chapter.
