Аннотация
Cryptosporidium has received increasing attention as a pathogen in normal as well as immunocompromised persons. We report a case of cryptosporidiosis occurred in a 18-months-old-girl who was treated with spiramycin for 8 days with complete resolution of diarrhea within the first days of therapy; follow-up stool examination was negative for the protozoan. The incidence of diarrhea due to Cryptosporidium seems to be higher than it was reported before: so fecal samples, when negative for other etiological agents, should be examined for Cryptosporidium oocysts. Spiramycin seems to be an effective and well-tolerated drug: treatment is recommended in children with prolonged and/or severe diarrhea when Cryptosporidium seems to be the etiological cause of the disease.
