Overview

The most potent risk factor in the development of microsporidiosis is immunodeficiency. Other risk factors among immunodeficient patients include poor sanitation and contact with poultry droppings.[1][2]

Risk factors

Immunodeficiency is the most important risk factor for developing microsporidiosis. Microsporidiosis is almost always reported in immunodeficient patients:[1][2]

Risk factors among HIV patients

Intestinal microsporidiosis in persons with HIV infection have been linked with:[3]
