Özet:
THE PREVALENCE OF HELMINTHS IN STRAY DOGS
AND THEIR POTENTIAL PUBLIC HEALTH
SIGNIFICANCE IN SIVAS
In this study, to understand the
distribution of helminth parasites and importance of them from the point of
public health in stray dogs in Sivas a post mortem examination
is conducted on 50 animals. 48 out of 50 dogs ( 96 % ) were
found to be
infected with one
or more parasitic
helminths.
These
helminths were identified as
follows:
Dipylidium
caninum ( 58 % ), Multiceps multiceps
( 14 % ), Mesocestoides lineatus
( 12 % ), Taenia pisiformis ( 12 % ),
Taenia hydatigena ( 14 % ),
Echinococcus granulosus ( 28 % ),
Toxocara canis ( 46 % ), Toxascaris leonina ( 60 % ), Spirocerca lupi ( 8 % ),
Dirofilaria immitis ( 6 % ), Heterophyes heterophyes ( 2 % ). Also, we found a trematod species which we
could not identified it at the moment.
Among these H. heterophyes, D. immitis, S. lupi, M. multiceps were
recorded for the first time in dogs in Sivas.
Stool
specimens obtained from rectum of these
50 dogs were examined with both direct and flotation methods, when we compared
the results of both autopsy and stool
examinations from the point
of the positivity rate. We
obtained best results
in autopsy.
High
prevalence of E. granulosus, T. canis, D. caninum and M. multiceps in stray dogs in Sivas is discussed from the point of their
public health importance.
