+'''For patient information click [[{{PAGENAME}} (patient information)|here]]'''
-'''''[[Cyclospora cayetanensis]]''''' is a pathogenic [[protozoan]] transmitted by [[feces]] or feces-contaminated fresh produce and water.  [[Outbreak]]s have been reported in imported raspberries.  Fortunately it is not spread from person to person.  It is commonly the cause of [[diarrhea]] for many travelers.

-==Mode of infection==
-When an [[oocyst]] of [[C. cayetanensis|''C. cayetanensis'']] enters the [[small intestine]] and invades the [[mucosa]] it incubates for about one week.  After incubation the person begins to experience severe watery diarrhea, bloating, fever, stomach cramps, and muscle aches.
-Oocyst can be present due to using contaminated water or human feces as fertilizer. They primarily effect humans and other primates.
-==Diagnosis and treatment==
+==[[Cyclosporiasis overview|Overview]]==
-[[Diagnosis]] can be difficult due to the lack of recognizable oocysts in the feces.  Using tests like [[PCR]]-based [[DNA]] tests and [[Ziehl-Neelsen stain|acid-fast staining]] can help with idenfication. The infection is often treated with [[trimethoprim]] and [[sulfamethoxazole]], because traditional anti-protozoan drugs are not sufficient.  To prevent the transmission through food, cook or freeze food and try to avoid drinking stream water while outdoors.
