There are 4 species of Shigella: S. dysenteriae, S. flexneri, S. boydii, and S. sonnei (also referred to as group A, B, C, and D, respectively). Several distinct serotypes are recognized within the first 3 species. The accurate estimate of morbidity and mortality is lacking in case of shigellosis. This review is focused upon the epidemiology, disease burden and therapeutic approaches and developments of shigellosis. Key Words: Shigella, diarrhea, Enterobacteriaceae, shigellosis
