American trypanosomiasis also known as Chagas disease is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi (T.cruzi), which is transmitted by the bite of triatomine bugs. The parasites hide during the day time and become active at night and feed on human blood. T. cruzi can also be transmitted by food contaminated with the parasite, blood transfusion, transmission from infected mother to newborn during gestational period, organ transplant, and laboratory accidents. Its symptoms are not severe and are often not diagnosed. The parasites hide mainly in the heart and digestive muscles during the chronic phase. After years of chronic infection, it become an important cause of human heart diseases (30 %), megacolon, and megaseophagus.
