Abstract

Isospora belli, an opportunistic protozoon, is one of the most commonly recognized causes of diarrhea in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Infection is acquired through fecal contaminated food or water, and generally diagnosed by examination of stool and/or duodenum biopsy specimens with acid-fast staining. Here, we present an uncommon case, chronic diarrheacaused by I. belli infection in a patient who is a renal transplant recipient.

Özet

Isospora belli, akkiz immün yetmezlikli sendromlu hastalarda en sık rastlanılan ishal etkenlerinden biri olan fırsatçı protozoondur. İnfeksiyon dışkı ile kontamine yiyecek veya su yoluyla bulaşır ve genellikle dışkı ve / veya duodenum biopsi örneklerinin asit-fast boyamalarıyla tanısı konmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’de yaşayan böbrek transplantasyonu geçirmiş (alıcısı) olan kronik ishalli bir hastada I. belli infeksiyonu sunulmaktadır.
