Prevalence and morphopathological characteristics of linguatulosis in one-humped camel (Camelus dromedarius) in Yazd, Iran

Abstract: Linguatula serrata is a cosmopolitan zoonotic parasite. Its adult form inhabit the nasal and respiratory passages of canids as the definitive hosts while its immature stages localize in the mesenteric lymph nodes or in other organs of herbivorous intermediate hosts. We examined the liver, mesenteric, and mediastinal lymph nodes of 272 camels slaughtered at the slaughterhouse of Yazd, Iran. Forty-one out of 272 camels (15.1 %) were infected with nymphs of L. serrata. Twenty-four out of 166 males (14.45 %) and 1… Show more

“…In animals, few studies describe and characterise the inflammatory reaction triggered by L. serrata (Farjanikish and Shokrani 2016, Paredes and Muñoz 2016, Rabeeh et al 2017. In contrast, microscopic patterns of tissue reactions for each type of lesion have been described for humans, concerning the intensity of the inflammatory response, cell populations and the repair process of the surrounding tissue (Tappe et al 2006).…”
