“…No geral, a região anterior do corpo dos animais (paleta, costelas e flanco) é a área mais parasitada Pinto et al, 2002;Mozzaquatro;Sanavria, 2003;Fernandes et al, 2008), pois esse é o local onde o díptero forético pode pousar tranquilamente sem ser prontamente espantado pelos movimentos da cauda ou da cabeça do animal Fernandes et al, 2008). Além disso, animais de pelagem escura são mais atacados que os de pelagem clara (Sancho, 1988;Sanavria et al, 2002).…”

“…The estimates of economic losses due to the cattle grub focused on regions where this parasite is abundant and important. Thus, average infestations on B. taurus (74 larvae/animal/year) and B. indicus (18.2 larvae/animal/year) were estimated for the central-western and southern regions, as well as for the state of Paraná, based on several studies (MAGALHÃES; LESSKIU, 1982;SARTOR, 1986;GOMES et al, 1988GOMES et al, , 1996CARNEIRO et al, 1990;OLIVEIRA, 1991;PINTO et al, 2002;FERNANDES et al, 2008;SOUZA et al, 2010). Considering that 19.12 million B. taurus and 90.96 million B. indicus are at risk, the potential losses in weight gain due to this parasite amount to $201.93 million yearly.…”

The profitability of livestock activities can be diminished significantly by the effects of parasites. Economic losses caused by cattle parasites in Brazil were estimated on an annual basis, considering the total number of animals at risk and the potential detrimental effects of parasitism on cattle productivity. Estimates in U.S. dollars (USD) were based on reported yield losses among untreated animals and reflected some of the effects of parasitic diseases. Relevant parasites that affect cattle productivity in Brazil, and their economic impact in USD billions include: gastrointestinal nematodes - $7.11; cattle tick (Rhipicephalus(Boophilus) microplus) - $3.24; horn fly (Haematobia irritans) - $2.56; cattle grub (Dermatobia hominis) - $0.38; New World screwworm fly (Cochliomyia hominivorax) - $0.34; and stable fly (Stomoxys calcitrans) - $0.34. The combined annual economic loss due to internal and external parasites of cattle in Brazil considered here was estimated to be at least USD 13.96 billion. These findings are discussed in the context of methodologies and research that are required in order to improve the accuracy of these economic impact assessments. This information needs to be taken into consideration when developing sustainable policies for mitigating the impact of parasitism on the profitability of Brazilian cattle producers.

“…The literature consulted contains reports of furuncular myiasis in several species such as cattle ( Fernandes et al, 2008 ; Oliveira-Sequeira et al, 1996 ), dogs ( Deak et al, 2020 ; Ribeiro et al, 2001 ), wild animals ( May-Junior et al, 2021 ; Soares et al, 2021 ; Verocai et al, 2009 ) and even in humans ( Freitas et al, 2018 ; Pinos et al, 2014 ). The present study shows dermatobiosis in a domestic cat, only reported before in Brazil and Venezuela ( Campos et al, 2021 ; Marcial et al, 2003 ; Verocai et al, 2010 ).…”

Furuncular myiasis caused by Dermatobia hominis in a domestic cat case report

Dermatobiosis is defined as a parasitosis caused by the larval stage of the human botfly Dermatobia hominis , often observed in large animals but considered unusual in pet animals. The aim of the report is to describe a naturally infested cat treated in a reference dermatology service with clinical presentation similar to neoplasia or abscess. A six-year-old spayed male Brazilian Shorthair cat with outdoor access, from the countryside of Rio de Janeiro state, was treated for two nodules, one located in the sacral region and one in the tail. The patient was restrained, and digital compression of the lesions resulted in expulsion of D. hominis larvae, accompanied by a purulent secretion. The removal of larvae and use of antiseptic at the site resolved the furuncular myiasis. It is possible to assume that the parasitism reported here resulted from the animal’s living arrangement, in a rural area with cattle parasitized by D. hominis . We conclude that parasitism by D. hominis should be present on the list of differential diagnoses of cats with nodules and that mechanical removal associated with the use of antiseptics is resolutive.
