Abstract
25 Anamnesis: A wild free-living tigrillo (Leopardus tigrinus) was admitted to the veterinary clinic 26 Unidad de Rehabilitación y Rescate de Animales Silvestres (URRAS) of Universidad Nacional de 27 Colombia, due to multiple traumas and the animal died. Clinical and laboratory findings: Necropsy 28 examination revealed multiple white nodules of about 2 mm in diameter distributed on the visceral 29 lung surface of caudal lobes. Histopathology revealed lymphoplasmacytic interstitial pneumonia with 30 multiple coiled larvae of metastrongyloid nematodes in alveoli and bronchioles. Fecal postmortem 31 sample for Ritchie copromicroscopic technique allowed identification of first-stage Aelurostrongylus 32 abstrusus nematode. Conclusion: This study reports an incidental severe pulmonary parasitism 33 caused by A. abstrusus in a wild free-living tigrillo (L. tigrinus) from Colombia. This is the first report 34 of A. abstrusus infection associated with pathological lesions in a L. tigrinus from Colombia. 35 36
25遗忘:一只野生自由生活的老虎(豹子)被哥伦比亚国立大学兽医诊所26 Unidad de Rehabilitación y Rescate de Animales Silvestres (URRAS)收治,由于多处创伤,动物死亡。临床及实验室表现:尸检示尾叶脏肺表面多发白色结节,直径约2mm。组织病理学显示淋巴浆细胞间质性肺炎,肺泡和细支气管内有30个多盘状的偏圆形线虫幼虫。尸体粪便标本经Ritchie共显微技术鉴定为第一阶段的隐杆线虫。结论:本研究报道了一种偶然发生的严重肺寄生病,该病是由一种野生野生老虎(L. tigrinus)引起的。这是首次报道在哥伦比亚的虎耳螺旋藻中发现与病理病变相关的抽象螺旋藻感染
期刊介绍:
The editors of Revista Colombiana de Ciencias Pecuarias (RCCP) welcome the submission of original manuscripts on experimental and clinical studies associated with the broad areas of animal sciences and veterinary medicine as they interface with biochemistry, molecular biology, physiology, pharmacology, toxicology, pathology, microbiology, parasitology, immunology and epidemiology. The scope of the journal includes studies of basic and applied research in animal management and production, feeding and nutrition, reproduction, breeding, genetics, animal welfare and behavior; as well as animal production focussed from biotechnology, soil science, agrostology, silvopastoral systems, livestock economics and the environment.
The criteria for acceptance of papers submitted for publication are originality, quality and clarity of the content. Each contribution must be based on original, unpublished research that has not been simultaneously submitted to other journals. All papers will be peer reviewed. All authors bear responsibility for ensuring the integrity and quality of their reported research. It is the author''s responsibility to secure permission to use figures or tables that have been published elsewhere.
Contributions may be classified as original research, review, rapid communication, clinical case studies or methodological articles, as well as news/commentaries or letters to the editor. Most review articles are invited by the editor. Authors interested in submitting a review article should contact the corresponding editor. Rapid publication of original manuscripts is a goal of the journal. Manuscripts must be written in English. Each manuscript is considered for publication with the understanding that it has not been simultaneously submitted to any other journal.
