Cardiac sarcocystosis is described in a grand eclectus parrot and a Moluccan cockatoo. Many cysts containing metrocytes were observed within cardiac muscle fibers on tissue sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Characteristic ultrastructural features of the cyst walls included the presence of villous projections containing microtubules. Compartmentalization of the cysts resulted from inward extensions of the cyst wall. The differential diagnosis of sarcocystosis, the life cycle of the parasite, and control measures are discussed.
在一只大紫胸鹦鹉和一只摩鹿加凤头鹦鹉身上发现了心脏肉孢子虫病。在用苏木精和伊红染色的组织切片中，在心肌纤维内观察到许多含有滋养母细胞的囊肿。囊肿壁的特征性超微结构包括存在含有微管的绒毛状突起。囊肿的分隔是由囊肿壁向内延伸导致的。文中讨论了肉孢子虫病的鉴别诊断、寄生虫的生命周期及控制措施。
