Neurological dysfunction and fatal encephalitis due to Halicephalobus gingivalis in two horses in Belgium
Two horses kept on different farms at a geographical distance of 150 km were presented with acute neurological dysfunction. Ante-mortem diagnostic tests including bloodwork, CT scan and cerebrospinal fluid analysis did not provide a diagnosis in either case. Due to rapid deterioration, both horses were euthanised shortly after admission. Postmortem histopathological examination revealed granulomatous meningoencephalitis with intralesional nematodes that were morphologically identified as Halicephalobus gingivalis. This is the first documentation of central nervous system infestation by H. gingivalis in horses residing in Belgium, emphasising the importance of considering aberrant parasitic migration in the differential diagnosis of acute neurological dysfunction.
期刊介绍：
Equine Veterinary Education (EVE) is the official journal of post-graduate education of both the British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA) and the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP).
Equine Veterinary Education is a monthly, peer-reviewed, subscription-based journal, integrating clinical research papers, review articles and case reports from international sources, covering all aspects of medicine and surgery relating to equids. These papers facilitate the dissemination and implementation of new ideas and techniques relating to clinical veterinary practice, with the ultimate aim of promoting best practice. New developments are placed in perspective, encompassing new concepts and peer commentary. The target audience is veterinarians primarily engaged in the practise of equine medicine and surgery. The educational value of a submitted article is one of the most important criteria that are assessed when deciding whether to accept it for publication. Articles do not necessarily need to contain original or novel information but we welcome submission of this material. The educational value of an article may relate to articles published with it (e.g. a Case Report may not have direct educational value but an associated Clinical Commentary or Review Article published alongside it will enhance the educational value).
