Three dogs with dirofilariasis had a dermatologic syndrome, characterized by pruritus and multifocal nodules which tended to ulcerate. The cutaneous nodules revealed angiocentric pyogranulomatous inflammation with variable numbers of eosinophils. Microfilariae were often present in the blood vessels surrounded by the pyogranulomatous process. Therapy for dirofilariasis resulted in complete resolution of the dermatitis.
三只患有恶丝虫病的狗出现了一种皮肤病综合征，其特征为瘙痒和多灶性结节，这些结节容易发生溃疡。皮肤结节显示为血管中心性脓性肉芽肿性炎症，伴有数量不等的嗜酸性粒细胞。微丝蚴常出现在脓性肉芽肿病变周围的血管中。恶丝虫病的治疗使皮炎完全消退。
