Trong thời gian 5 năm trở lại đây, bệnh do lây truyền từ động vật sang người ngày càng trở nên phổ biến với tần suất gặp trên lâm sàng ngày càng tăng, một trong những căn bệnh đó là bệnh do ấu trùng giun đũa chó/ mèo Toxocara canis và Toxocara cati. Nhiều nghiên cứu trên thế giới và Việt Nam đã và đang tiếp tục triển khai trên cộng đồng và trong cơ ở bệnh viện. Nhân đây, chúng tôi xin chia sẻ một số công trình nghiên cứu về bệnh này trong thời gian qua.
