Foodborne parasites in raw vegetables could cause parasitic infections in humans. An effective approach to the reduction of pathogenic microorganisms in vegetables involves identifying the main sources of contamination and the ecology of the involved microorganisms. This review aimed to evaluate the prevalence of foodborne parasites in raw vegetables in Iran. According to the reviewed studies, the prevalence rate of Ascaris spp., Giardia spp., Toxocara spp., Fasciola, Trichuris, Cryptosporidium, Dicrocoeliasis, Taenia spp., and Entamoeba histolytica was 6 % (95 % CI: 5–8 %), 6 % (95 % CI: 5–7 %), 6 % (95 % CI: 4–7 %), 2 % (95 % CI: 1–2 %), 1 % (95 % CI: 1–2 %), 10 % (95 % CI: 6–15 %), 2 % (95 % CI: 1–3 %), 5 % (95 % CI: 4–6 %), and 3 % (95 % CI: 2–4 %), respectively. According to the standard deviation map, Ilam province was one of the high-risk areas in terms of food-borne parasites in raw vegetables (3 SD < prevalence < 4 SD). Given the key role of raw vegetables in human parasitic contamination, governments must implement more stringent programs for effective wastewater treatment, preventing domestic and wild animals from entering farms, not using human and animal manure on farms, using ready-to-eat packaged vegetables, food safety training for households, implementation of GMP and HACCP in the factory vegetable packaging are required in this regard, especially in the high-risk areas of Iran, such as Ilam province.

生蔬菜中的食源性寄生虫可能导致人类寄生虫感染。减少蔬菜中病原微生物的有效方法包括确定主要污染源和相关微生物的生态学。本综述旨在评估伊朗生蔬菜中食源性寄生虫的流行情况。根据审查的研究，蛔虫属、贾第鞭毛虫属、弓蛔虫属、片形虫属、鞭虫属、隐孢子虫属、双子虫属、带绦虫属和溶组织内阿米巴的流行率为 6 %（95 % CI：5–8 %）、6 %（95 % CI：5–7 %）、6 %（95 % CI：4–7 %）、2 %（95 % CI：1–2 %), 1 % (95 % CI: 1–2 %), 10 % (95 % CI: 6–15 %), 2 % (95 % CI: 1–3 %), 5 % (95 % CI: 4 –6 %) 和 3 % (95 % CI: 2–4 %)。根据标准差图，伊拉姆省是生蔬菜食源性寄生虫高危地区之一（3 SD < 流行率 < 4 SD）。鉴于生蔬菜在人体寄生虫污染中的关键作用，政府必须实施更严格的有效废水处理计划，防止家畜和野生动物进入农场，不在农场使用人和动物粪便，使用即食包装蔬菜，在这方面需要对家庭进行食品安全培训，在工厂蔬菜包装中实施 GMP 和 HACCP，
