摘要
Gnathostomiasis is an important food-borne parasitic zoonosis that is endemic mainly in Asian countries where some people prefer to eat raw freshwater fish, In North America, the first recorded case of gnathostomiasis was in Mexico in 1970, and the numbers of gnathostomiasis patients in Mexico seems to be increasing dramatically with time, However the epidemiology of this disease: in Mexico has never been described in detail. Here we review the current status of gnathostomiasis in Mexico.
