Cryptosporidiosis is a coccidian infection that usually occurs in children an immunocompromised patients. With the AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) epidemic there have been an increased number of clinical cases and still we don't have an optimal therapeutic regimen to eradicate the infection. Since 1907 when the organism was first described, a large amount of anti-infective agents have been used without success. We present herein a review of the new therapeutic approaches, although none of them is satisfactory and new studies are required for the development of an optimal treatment. Symptomatic and nutritional support are the unique treatment we have so far.
隐孢子虫病是一种球虫感染，通常发生在儿童和免疫功能低下的患者中。随着艾滋病（获得性免疫缺陷综合征）的流行，临床病例数量有所增加，但我们仍然没有根除这种感染的最佳治疗方案。自1907年该病原体首次被描述以来，大量抗感染药物的使用均未成功。我们在此对新的治疗方法进行综述，尽管目前没有一种方法令人满意，仍需要开展新的研究来开发最佳治疗方案。对症治疗和营养支持是我们目前仅有的治疗方法。
