Balantidiasis is a parasitic infection caused by the protozoan parasite Balantidium coli. It is primarily an intestinal infection that can affect humans and various animals, particularly pigs. Balantidiasis is transmitted through the ingestion of food or water contaminated with Balantidium coli cysts, which are the dormant, resistant forms of the parasite.
Symptoms of balantidiasis can vary, ranging from asymptomatic to mild or severe gastrointestinal symptoms. Common symptoms may include diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and occasionally fever. In severe cases, the infection can cause dysentery, which is characterized by bloody or mucoid diarrhea.
Diagnosis of balantidiasis is typically made through microscopic examination of stool samples, where the characteristic large, oval Balantidium coli cysts or actively motile trophozoites can be observed. Additional tests, such as sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy, may be performed to evaluate the extent of the infection and rule out other causes of gastrointestinal symptoms.
