[endoparasites of the hedgehog].there is an increasing number of sick and young hedgehogs presented to veterinarians each fall. these wild hedgehogs are often heavily infected with parasites. helminths in the respiratory tract (crenosoma striatum and capillaria aerophila) cause lung dysfunction. intestinal tract of these small mammals is often infected by capillaria erinacei. furthermore hedgehogs may be occasionally infected by other nematodes (physaloptera clausa), trematodes (brachylaemus erinacei) and cestodes (hymenolepis ...200717987357
[endoparasitic infestation of wild hedgehogs and hedgehogs in human care with a contribution to therapy].in order to confirm the prevalence of endoparasites fecal samples from 127 hedgehogs living outdoors as well as from 85 in an animal home and from 542 hedgehogs hibernating in private homes were examined. 52.0%-72.3% of the animals from natural surroundings proved to be infested with the lung worm and 72.3%-74.0% with capillaria species of the intestine, respectively. capillaria aerophila were found in 15.1%-40.7%, whereas coccidia (1.4%-12.9%) were less frequent. in animal homes and private car ...19873424361
zoonoses and other findings in hedgehogs (erinaceus europaeus): a survey of mortality and review of the literature.a survey of mortality in hedgehogs (erinaceus europaeus) was carried out between july 1976 and november 1986. most were from norfolk. of the 74 examined, 35 (47.3 per cent) were road casualties, one of which yielded salmonella typhimurium phage type (pt) 104. of the remaining 39, 13 (33.3 per cent) had salmonellosis due to s enteritidis pt 11. this organism, which appears to be common and widespread in hedgehogs in england was found in 10 separate incidents. the only other zoonosis was ringworm ...19912035215
[results of parasitological examinations of faecal samples from horses, ruminants, pigs, dogs, cats, hedgehogs and rabbits between 1998 and 2002].the results of coproscopical examinations in horses, ruminants, pigs, dogs, cats, hedgehogs and rabbits between 1998 and 2002 are presented. in 4399 samples from horses 37.4% stages of strongylids, 1.4% anoplocephalids, 1.3% strongyloides westeri, 0.9% parascaris equorum, 0.04% oxyuris equi, 0.04% eimeria sp. and 0.04% fasciola hepatica were found. in 998 samples of cattle 22.1% stages of strongylids, 11.2% of eimeria spp., 3.5% of cryptosporidium, 2.9% of moniezia spp., 1.3% of trichuris spp., ...200415287577
helminth parasites found in hedgehogs (erinaceus concolor) from turkey.hedgehog diseases are becoming important issues for veterinary surgeons due to growing interest in this animal species among pet owners and an increase in cases of rescued hedgehogs requiring veterinary care. a parasitological study was carried out on hedgehogs (erinaceus concolor) in the bursa province of turkey, found dead mainly due to road casualties, to determine their helminth parasite burden. the detected helminths and their prevalences were as follows: physaloptera clausa (72.2%), crenos ...201020728230
[helminths of hedgehogs, erinaceus europaeus and e. roumanicus from poznań region, poland--coprological study].fecal samples from the hedgehogs, erinaceus europaeus (15 samples) and e. roumanicus (44 samples) collected in the poznań region of poland were examined. endoparasites were isolated using sheather's flotation technique. the prevalence of parasitic infections in all hedgehogs examined was 74.6% (e. europaeus--73.3%; e. roumanicus--75.0%). two species of parasites occurred in both species of hosts: aonchotheca erinacei (60% and 80%) and eucoleus aerophilus (6.7% and 15.9%). brachylaima erinacei wa ...201021449487
a survey on parasites of long-eared hedgehog (hemiechinus auritus) in northeast of iran.as there appeared to be no data available on parasite infection of hedgehogs in the region and considering the potential threat of hedgehogs for animal and public health, the present study was carried out using biological samples and necropsy findings collected from long-eared hedgehog captured in mashhad city in the northeast of iran. during the study 23 dead hedgehogs were collected randomly from different regions of mashhad county. following autopsy of these animals, observation for enteric p ...201627876947
histopathologic study of eosinophilic bronchointerstitial pneumonia caused by crenosoma striatum in the hedgehog.crenosoma striatum is a species of parasitic nematodes from the family crenosomatidae responsible for pathologic lung lesions in the hedgehog (erinaceus europaeus). infection with c. striatum can cause weight loss, dry cough, and bronchitis. in the present study, hedgehogs killed by road accidents, or trapped and found dead on farms in different parts of mazandaran province (iran), were transferred to the laboratory. after dissection, parasite samples collected from the lung were placed into 70% ...201425000695
macroscopic and microscopic examination of pulmonary crenosoma striatum in hedgehog.the aim of study was to necropsy and histopathology evaluation of lung crenosoma striatum in hedgehog. in july 2012, 10 porcupines were collected from urmia city and transferred to parasitology lab of the veterinary faculty where they were euthanized by ketamine (over 40-90 mg/kg) intraperitoneally. in this study the lungs were assessed through naked eyes regarding parasite presence upon washing. the lung tissue was examined under loop microscope in order to finding small worms in lung parenchym ...201424808649
helminth parasites of eastern european hedgehog (erinaceus concolor) in northern iran.recently there is a high tendency among exotic pet owners for keeping hedgehogs. this mammal can transfer some significant zoonotic pathogens to human. hence, the present study was conducted for the first time to prepare a list of helminth parasites of hedgehogs (erinaceus concolor) in north of iran.201325516749

infection with crenosoma striatum lungworm in long-eared hedgehog (hemiechinus auritus) in kerman province southeast of iran.hedgehogs are distributed in different areas of iran. unfortunately, clinical and parasitological studies on parasites of hedgehogs are very few. crenosoma striatum is a common lungworm in hedgehogs. c. striatum infection can cause weight loss, dry cough, bronchitis with ulcerous reactions based on secondary bacterial infections, pulmonary damage, thickening of the tracheal wall, and pulmonary emphysema up to cardiovascular failure. in this survey, six dead hedgehogs (hemiechinus auritus) were i ...201425732884
the european hedgehog (erinaceus europaeus), as a reservoir for helminth parasites in iran.from april 2009 to december 2011, 44 dead hedgehogs (erinaceus europaeus) were collected incidentally from areas of urmia, iran. the overall prevalence of helminth infections was 95.0%. specific parasites and their prevalences were: physaloptera clausa (93.0%), crenosoma striatum (61.0%), capillaria aerophila (9.0%), capillarias spp. (4.0%), brachylaemus erinacei (2.0%) and hymenolepis erinacei (16.0%). there were no significant differences in helminth occurrence between hedgehog sexes, either i ...201526261711
