AbstractDirofilariasis is a parasitic disease of domestic and wild animals that occasionally may present as zoonotic infection in humans. The microfilariae are accidentally transmitted to humans by Culex and Aedes mosquitoes. Ophthalmic infections with Dirofilaria are well documented all over the world, including America, Europe and Australia.

A differential diagnosis of inflammatory periocular soft tissue masses includes sarcoidosis, ruptured dermoid cyst, infectious abscess, metastatic neoplastic disease, and idiopathic pseudotumor. The authors present the case of a 42-year-old woman with a periocular inflammatory mass caused by dirofilaria of a nematode classification as Dirofilaria ...

Abstract Background. Subcutaneous and pulmonary dirofilariasis in humans appears to be a frequent disease in endemic areas, notably the Mediterranean region. Following increased air travel in recent years, the incidence of human dirofilariasis has increased in tourists as well. Methods. The clinical and parasitologic aspects in a series of six patients

Although canine dirofilariasis has been recognized for over 300 years human dirofilariasis has received relatively little attention. Although human beings are dead-end hosts they can become infected and develop lesions associated with infection. Although these lesions are typically benign they may be misdiagnosed as more important disease and prompt ...

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1993
The cat must be recognized as a different entity than a dog when considering heartworm disease. The cat responds differently than the dog to larval migration, adult development, and therapy. As a result of these differences, the clinical signs shown by the cat and the therapeutic alternatives must be considered as unique to the cat.

Human Pulmonary Dirofilariasis
Chest, 1974We have recently observed the 35th case of pulmonary dirofilariasis, the dog heartworm, in a human being. The clinical course was similar to that in other patients and included hemoptysis without other systemic complaints. The initial chest x-ray film was interpreted as suggestive of neoplasm, with definitive diagnosis made only following thoracotomy ...

Human pulmonary dirofilariasis
Histopathology, 1996Two new cases of human pulmonary dirofilariasis, in a 66‐year‐old woman and a 69‐year‐old man, respectively, both living in the Po valley, are described. They represent the 7th and 8th cases reported in Italy and seem to be ascribable to Dirofilaria repens, even though the poor state of preservation of the parasites did not allow the morphology of the ...

A 67-year-old woman with a long history of debilitating rheumatoid arthritis developed a peripheral coin lesion in the lower lobe of the left lung. A wedge resection was done and pathologic study revealed noncaseating granuloma secondary to rheumatoid infection with Dirofilaria immitis, a nematode.
