  • Title: [A case of canine angiostrongylosis].
    Author: Ribière T, Gottstein B, Huber E, Welle M, Forster JL, Grosclaude P.
    Journal: Schweiz Arch Tierheilkd; 2001 Jun; 143(6):313-8. PubMed ID: 11434208.
    Abstract:
    A six-month old bitch presenting a sub-lingual mucocele and hematoma associated with coagulation disorders died four days after the surgical treatment of the mucocele. The necropsy revealed a canine angiostrongylosis, a disease rarely seen in Switzerland. This article summarizes the biology of Angiostrongylus vasorum and describes the lesions and symptoms caused by this cardio-pulmonary helminthosis, as well as its diagnosis and treatment. The connections between angiostrongylosis and coagulation disorders are also discussed.
