Abstract: This is the first description of a Trypanosoma vivax outbreak in the state of São Paulo (municipality of Lins). Fever, jaundice, decreased milk production, weight loss, profuse diarrhea, abortion, anemia, leukocytosis and hyperfibrinogenemia were observed in the affected animals. Thirty-one cows and calves died out of a total of 1080 in the herd. Three cows showed neurological symptoms like dysmetria, ataxia, muscle weakness, ptyalism, lymph node enlargement and submandibular edema. Flagellated hemoparasites w… Show more

“…Decreases in erythrocytes have been associated with erythrocytes desialylation in the acute phase of disease, stage of high parasitemia (GUEGAN et al, 2013). Our findings differ from those obtained by other authors in cattle BATISTA et al, 2007BATISTA et al, , 2008CUGLOVICI et al, 2010;CADIOLI et al, 2012) who noticed moderate to severe anemia. However, Schenk et al (2001) observed a PCV decrease similar to our study, that reached a minimum value of 25% at 10 DAI and this variable did not return to pre-infection values.…”

“…Clinical signs presented by the animals of this study were consistent with those reported by other authors (BATISTA et al, 2008;CADIOLI et al, 2012), consisting principally of apathy, enlarged lymph nodes, hyporexia, weight loss, diarrhea, submandibular edema and vaginal discharge, all mild to moderate degree. The animal's susceptibility to infection is associated with several factors such as age, concurrent infections, pregnancy, lactation and nutritional conditions (KATUNGUKA-RWAKISHAYA et al, 1997).…”
