During the past couple of decades, numerous surveys for the occurrence and distribution of food-borne trematodes in Vietnam have been carried out. However, the majority of the data obtained have not been published in international journals, and therefore, the seriousness of these trematode parasitic zoonoses in the country has not been fully appreciated. To correct this, over 40 Vietnamese language reports and local publications were translated and organized as a status review for an international audience. The results show that such serious trematode zoonoses as clonorchiasis, opisthorchiasis, paragonimiasis and fascioliasis are common in many regions of Vietnam, and, in the case of fascioliasis and paragonimiasis, are increasing. Data on the species of intermediate hosts involved in the transmission of these zoonoses, and the effect of host sex and age on infection frequencies are presented, along with findings on food preference/behavior investigations. Finally, the authors present recommendations for further research to provide a more comprehensive picture of the status of these zoonoses, and to obtain the risk assessment information needed to design prevention and control programs.
在过去几十年里，越南开展了多项关于食源性吸虫的发生和分布的调查。然而，所获得的大部分数据尚未在国际期刊上发表，因此，该国这些吸虫寄生性人畜共患病的严重性尚未得到充分认识。为了纠正这一情况，40多篇越南语报告和地方出版物被翻译整理成一份面向国际读者的现状综述。结果表明，诸如华支睾吸虫病、后睾吸虫病、肺吸虫病和肝片吸虫病等严重的吸虫人畜共患病在越南许多地区都很常见，而且就肝片吸虫病和肺吸虫病而言，发病率正在上升。文中呈现了这些人畜共患病传播过程中所涉及的中间宿主种类的数据，以及宿主性别和年龄对感染频率的影响，还有食物偏好/行为调查的结果。最后，作者提出了进一步研究的建议，以更全面地了解这些人畜共患病的现状，并获取设计预防和控制方案所需的风险评估信息。
