Abstract
The persistence of gastrointestinal symptoms after travel to a developing country is one of the most common and troublesome post-travel illnesses. Few data exist to document the extent of this problem, but anecdotal examples abound among travel medicine practitioners, internists, and gastroenterologists. This article presents an approach to the patient with persistent gastrointestinal symptoms after travel.
