บทคัดย่อ
โรคทริโคโมโนซิสในแมวซึ่งมีรายงานการพบโรคเพิ่มขึ้นเรื่อยๆในหลายพื้นที่ทั่วโลกเป็นโรคที่เกิดจากการติดเชื้อทริโคโมโนแนส ฟีตัส (Trichomonas foetus) ในลำไส้ใหญ่ โดยแมวที่ติดเชื้ออาจไม่แสดงอาการผิดปกติใดๆเลยหรืออาจมีอาการท้องเสียเรื้อรังซึ่งจะพบได้บ่อยกว่าในลูกแมว เชื้อดังกล่าวเป็นโปรโตซัวที่เป็นที่รู้จักกันมานานว่าก่อโรคทริโคโมโนซิสในโคซึ่งทำให้เกิดความผิดปกติเกี่ยวกับระบบสืบพันธุ์ของโค ในขณะที่การติดต่อของโรคทริโคโมโนซิสในโคเกิดขึ้นได้โดยการผสมพันธุ์ แต่การติดต่อของโรคทริโคโมโนซิสในแมวกลับเกิดจากการได้รับเชื้อที่ปนเปื้อนมากับอุจจาระเข้าทางปาก บทความปริทัศน์นี้มีวัตถุประสงค์เพื่อให้ความรู้เกี่ยวกับโรคทริโคโมโนซิสในแมว ทั้งในด้านการติดต่อของโรค การวินิจฉัยและการรักษา
