A group of 118 patients, aged 1-73 years, suffering from giardiasis in their gastrointestinal tract was studied in the period of 1988-1990. The analysis consisted in determination of frequency, sex distribution, age categories and incidence within the period of 12 months. Patients older than 15 years were asked about the possible sources of infection, subjective and objective symptoms and therapy. The information obtained for our region were compared with data reported in literature.
