Trichomonas vaginalis: Complications and Treatment

Abstract

Trichomonas vaginalis is a pear-shaped organism that propels itself with four whip-like flagella that protrude from its front end. Trichomonads participate in a host-parasite relationship, causing them to adhere to epithelial cells. Trichomonas vaginalis has been described as a common cosmopolitan parasite of both males and females. The paper reviewed Trichomonas vaginalis from history, prevalence, complications, diagnosis to treatment.
