Occurrence of larvae of Metastrongyloidea in feaces of cats from southeastern Poland [PDF]
Medycyna Weterynaryjna, 2019 Faecal samples from 716 cats from Poland, were examined for lungworm larvae (Metastrongyloidea) by flotation, sedimentation and Baermann techniques between January 2016 and April 2019 year. In total, 1.1% (8/716; CI ± 95% 0.3-1.9) of cats shed lungworm larvae.
