AB Trichuriasis  is  caused  by  the  intestinal  nematode,  Trichuris  trichiura,  commonly  known  as  the  whipworm.  Humans  are  the  principal  hosts  for  this  parasite.  T  trichiura  is  found  in  coexistence  with  other  soil-transmitted  helminths,  most  commonly  Ascaris  lumbricoides  and  hookworms  (Ancylostoma  duodenale  and  Necator  americanus).
