Gnatostomíase é uma doença humana causada pelo nematóide Gnathostoma hispidum e/ou Gnathostoma spinigerum e infecta vertebrados. A gnatostomíase é uma parasitose endêmica em alguns países onde há frequente consumo de peixes de água doce crus ou pouco cozidos como Tailândia, Japão, Peru e países da América Central. Cozinhar bem os alimentos e ferver/filtrar a água previne a infecção. A popularização do consumo de peixe cru (como ceviche, sushi e sashimi) ou cozido no vapor está aumentando o número de casos no mundo.
