Abstract

A 3-year-old spayed female dog was admitted with a history of episodes of dyspnoea and coughing. Severe tracheal stenosis was found on radiography. The dog died during an episode of refractory dyspnoea. Necropsy revealed an obstruction of the thoracic part of the trachea because of a chronic granulomatous inflammation protruding into the tracheal lumen. Histological examination revealed nematodes, which were identified asOnchocercasp. according to their morphological characteristics. In contrast to the common ocular manifestation in dogs, obstructive tracheitis caused byOnchocercainfection has not been reported before. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
