  • Title: Pleural effusion as a sequela to aelurostrongylosis in a cat.
    Author: Miller BH, Roudebush P, Ward HG.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1984 Sep 01; 185(5):556-7. PubMed ID: 6480479.
    Abstract:
    A two-year-old domestic cat was admitted with dyspnea and coughing. Unilateral pleural effusion with characteristics of an eosinophilic exudate was demonstrated. A direct fecal smear was positive for Aelurostrongylus abstrussus larvae. Treatment with levamisole and fenbendazole was curative. Aelurostrongylosis should be suspected in any cat with dyspnea, coughing, or pleural effusion.
