Purpose To warn the ophthalmologist to consider orbital dirofilariasis in the differential diagnosis of inflammatory masses of the orbit. Patients Two cases with non-specific swelling and pain of the orbit who had a initial diagnosis of “inflammatory pseudotumor of the orbit”. Results These are two new cases of orbital dirofilariasis. Conclusion In the

Prevalence studies indicate that cats throughout the world residing in areas enzootic for heartworm disease in dogs are prone to infection. The prevalence in cats seems to parallel the prevalence in dogs in the same area but at a much lower level with cats having approximately one tenth (1/10) the prevalence seen in the unprotected dog population. This

Pulmonary dirofilariasis is a rare entity caused by Dirofilaria immitis, the dog heartworm that is transmitted to humans by mosquitos. This filarial nematode enters the subcutaneous tissue, travels to the right ventricle where it dies, and then embolizes the pulmonary vasculature, causing a small pulmonary infarction, which subsequently appears as a ...

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 ...
