Abstract
Our knowledge concerning cytopathogenicity of Trichomonas vaginalis has bee n enriched in the past by numerous findings. In this paper, we review the l atest advances in the field and discuss the different mechanisms and molecu les responsible for the parasite's virulence. (C) Elsevier, Paris.
