AbstractA variety of infectious enteric pathogens (bacterial, viral, and protozoal) can lead to a systemic diarrheal illness in international travelers traveling from industrialized countries to developing areas of the world. Many of the agents that lead to this syndrome have been identified, and their mode of transmission has been defined. Prophylactic measures are advisable, and effective treatment options are available. This article also discusses issues important in the management of patients who develop a chronic diarrheal illness after travel.
