Babesia spp. infections transmitted through blood transfusion.

Edward Siński1, Renata Welc-Faleciak, Ryszard Pogłód.   

Abstract

Babesiosis in humans is caused by infection with various species of Babesia (Apicomplexa, Piroplasmida), mainly transmitted by an arthropod vector--Ixodes spp. ticks. This review will focus on blood transfusion as another mode of Babesia transmission, especially in endemic areas, as well as the impact of human babesiosis on transfusion medicine.
