Travelers’ diarrheas incidence has increased over the recent years. In this paper we discuss which are the main etiological agents, mainly bacterias, their geographic distribution and new diagnostic methods. New discoveries have been made regarding susceptibility towards travelers’ diarrhea, both individual and related to the trip destination. Also, we describe the main sequelae of TD: reactive arthritis, Guillain-Barré syndrome and post-infectious irri- table bowel syndrome. Furthermore we describe TD prevention (sanitation, chemoprophylaxis and vaccines) and its treatment, emphasizing risk groups such as children and immunocompro- mised individuals.
