Leishmaniosis, dirofilariosis and angiostrongylosis are parasitic diseases of established importance in dogs worldwide. The aim of the present report was to determine all together levels of infection with or exposure to Leishmania infantum, Dirofilaria immitisand Angiostrongylus vasorum in dogs from the Algarve region, in southern Portugal. Serum samples were obtained from a total of 170 apparently healthy dogs. Antibodies […]

CASE SUMMARY: This is the first clinical report of feline viscerocutaneous leishmaniosis caused by Leishmania infantum genotype E associated with an invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in a domestic cat from Portugal. Initially, the cat presented a single cutaneous lesion in the right nostril. A fine-needle aspiration was performed and Leishmania amastigotes were observed without the presence of cells […]

Vector-borne diseases (VBD) are caused by a range of pathogens transmitted by arthropods and have emerged in recent years, showing a wider geographic distribution and increased global prevalence. In addition to their veterinary medical importance, cats play a central role in the transmission cycles of some VBD agents by acting as reservoirs, amplifying hosts or […]

Bacterial and protozoal agents of canine vector-borne diseases in the blood of domestic and stray dogs from southern Portugal

  • Autores: Almeida B, Coimbra M, Cristóvão JM, Fernandes MC, Maia C, Martinho F, Martins A, Neves N, Ramos C, Silva P
  • Ano de Publicação: 2015
  • Journal: Parasites & Vectors
  • Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4369867/%20

The so-called canine vector-borne diseases (CVBD) are caused by a wide range of pathogens transmitted by arthropods. In addition to their veterinary importance, many of these canine vector-borne pathogens can also affect the human population due to their zoonotic potential, a situation that requires a One Health approach. As the prevalence of vector-borne pathogens in […]
