Human infection with Cryptosporidium felis: case report and literature review.

Simone Cacciò1, Elena Pinter, Rosanna Fantini, Ivano Mezzaroma, Edoardo Pozio.   

Abstract

An infection with Cryptosporidium felis in an HIV-positive man from Italy was successfully treated with paromomycin, despite the patient's having a CD4+ cell count of 31/mL. Fourteen cases of human infection with C. felis have been described, all in the past 3 years, emphasizing the public health importance of Cryptosporidium parasites other than C. parvum.
