  • Title: Angiostrongylus vasorum infection in dogs: continuing spread and developments in diagnosis and treatment.
    Author: Morgan E, Shaw S.
    Journal: J Small Anim Pract; 2010 Dec; 51(12):616-21. PubMed ID: 20964690.
    Abstract:
    Disease caused by Angiostrongylus vasorum is increasingly diagnosed in dogs, as the geographic range of the parasite increases along with awareness among clinicians. Diagnosis, treatment and prevention are not always straightforward, although recent developments offer hope for improved options in future. Understanding of the epidemiology and pathogenesis remains poor. This paper provides an overview of the current state of knowledge of this parasitic disease, focussing on the most recent developments and advances.
