Abstract

Bu makalede, keçilerde Pentastomum denticulatum infeksiyonu olgusu tanımlanmıştır. 2007 yılının Ağustos
ayında, Rusçuk bölgesinde (Kuzey Bulgaristan), 30 keçiden oluşan sürü içinde, iştah azalması, depresyon, aşırı
zayıflama, yatma ve süt veriminin azalmasını içeren non-spesifik klinik belirtiler gözlemlendi. Antibiyotik tedavisi
yapılmasına rağmen keçilerden üç tanesi öldü. Nekropsilerinde, karaciğer, akciğer ve mezenterik lenf düğümlerinin
içinde beyaz parazitleri içeren küçük sarı-beyaz oval kistler görüldü. Parazitler (toplam sayı - 30) mikroskobik olarak
incelenerek Linguatula serrata 'nın larva evresindeki Pentastomum denticulatum olarak saptandı.
