The "cat lungworm", Aelurostrongylus abstrusus, affects cats worldwide. Recently, other cardio-pulmonary parasites, e.g. Troglostrongylus brevior and Angiostrongylus chabaudi, have been isolated from cats either for the first time or a long time after they were first described. This paper describes the first known mixed infection by A. abstrusus, T. brevior and A. chabaudi in a domestic cat. Biological and epidemiological implications of old and "new" metastrongyloid-caused infections in cats are discussed.
“猫肺线虫”,即隐蔽猫圆线虫,在全球范围内感染猫。最近,其他心肺寄生虫,如短颈 Troglostrongylus brevior 和沙氏血管圆线虫 Angiostrongylus chabaudi,要么首次从猫身上分离出来,要么在首次描述它们很长时间后又从猫身上分离出来。本文描述了家猫首次出现的由隐蔽猫圆线虫、短颈 Troglostrongylus brevior 和沙氏血管圆线虫 Angiostrongylus chabaudi 引起的混合感染。讨论了猫体内由旧的和“新的”后圆线虫引起的感染的生物学和流行病学意义。
