An epidemiological survey on 33 cases of blastocytosis was conducted. This study confirms that infection is transmitted through ingestion of water, fruit or vegetables that have been contaminated by animal excrement. At our latitude blastocytosis, nourished by animal reservoirs, is widespread throughout the year without any particular seasonal incidence peak.
