A total of 109 badger Meles meles skulls from Catalonia (north-eastern Iberian Peninsula) were studied for helminths. The tremadode Troglotrema acutum is reported here for the first time in the Eurasian badger in the Iberian Peninsula and southern Europe. Three methodologies were used to detect this trematode: an examination for surface lesions, axial computed tomography and fresh skull dissection. The damage caused in the affected skulls is described, along with details regarding the use of computed tomography to detect hyperostosis, leakage in the sinus structure and bone surface erosion in the affected skulls.
对来自加泰罗尼亚（伊比利亚半岛东北部）的109个獾（欧洲獾）头骨进行了寄生虫研究。吸虫类的尖锐穴吸虫首次在伊比利亚半岛和南欧的欧亚獾中被发现。使用了三种方法来检测这种吸虫：检查表面损伤、轴向计算机断层扫描和新鲜头骨解剖。描述了受影响头骨所造成的损伤，以及使用计算机断层扫描检测受影响头骨中的骨质增生、鼻窦结构渗漏和骨表面侵蚀的详细情况。
