Abstract

The analysis of literature data and the authors' own investigations showed that the southern part of the Ukraine is a trichinelliasis endemic territory where the synanthropic foci of the invasion are registered. The wide spreading of trichinelliasis among pigs and the nonobservance of the control measures provided by the veterinary legislation cause an increase in human prevalence.
