Giardia and Vilem Dusan Lambl

Original language description

Giardiasis is a neglected disease, which spreads worldwide from Arctic to Tropics. It affects nearly 2% of adults and 6% to 8% of children in developed countries worldwide. Nearly 33% of people in developing countries have had giardiasis. The disease iscaused by a binucleated flagellated protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia (syn. G. intestinalis, G. duodenalis) that inhabits the small intestine in humans and the other mammals. Clinical giardiasis is varied and ranges from asymptomatic passage of cysts toabdominal cramps, nausea, acute or chronic diarrhea, malabsorption, weight loss, and failure of children to thrive in both subclinical and symptomatic disease. The first description of Giardia had been attributed to Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, who in his letter to the Royal Society in November 4, 1681 described presence of microorganisms in his stool. However, the first microscopic drawing of morphological characteristics identifying the parasite Giardia, was provided by Vilém Dušan Lambl
