    Gastrointestinal diseases are one of the main public health problems, especially in developing countries, which do not have good health systems. Blastocystis spp. Is a protozoan with high prevalence worldwide that is transmitted very easily by inadequate hygiene habits and has been related to gastrointestinal symptoms. The main objective of the investigative study was to establish the relationship between subtypes of Blastocystis spp. and irritable bowel syndrome. It is therefore convenient to mention that this syndrome constitutes a gastrointestinal disorder very frequent in medical practice. It is characterized by abdominal pain (or "malaise"), abdominal distension, and is associated with changes in the frequency of bowel movements and / or consistency. In this study we analyzed the symptoms associated with Blastocystis spp. infections compatible with irritable bowel syndrome and the prevalence of the parasite; From a sample of 389 inhabitants of the city of Cúcuta. With regard to symptomatology, diarrhea was the most likely symptom to be associated with the presence of the parasite with a P = 0.0250 value, which is very significant. Coproanalysis was performed and a total of 179 samples were positive for Blastocystis and a total of 44.13% of the samples were monoparasited by Blastocystis spp. Indicating that the samples to discard other enteropathogens were made coprological and modified Ziehl Neelsen staining, and coproculture diarrheal stool and Adenovirus / Rotavirus test, thus obtaining truly monoparasite samples. Conventional PCR was performed on the latter, in order to determine the subtypes of ST1 to ST7 of Blastocystis spp. With ST1 being the most prevalent. It is possible to associate in a great extent the subtype 5 with gastrointestinal symptomatology compatible with the Irritable Intest Syndrome in the population of San José de Cúcuta.
