| |
| − | *Primary infection:
| |
| − | **Penetration phase (week 1)
| |
| − | ***Larvae migrate to lungs, no clinical signs
| |
| − | **Prepatent phase (weeks 1-3)
| |
| − | ***Development and migration of larvae -> [[Bronchi and Bronchioles Inflammatory - Pathology#Bronchiolitis|bronchiolitis]] -> eosinophilic exudate -> air passage blocked -> alveolar collapse (distal to blockage) -> clinical signs (tachypnoea, coughing)
| |
| − | **Patent phase (weeks 4-8)
| |
| − | ***Egg-producing mature worms
| |
| − | ***[[Bronchi and Bronchioles Inflammatory - Pathology#Bronchitis|Bronchitis]] - due to mature worms
| |
| − | ***[[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Verminous pneumonia|Parasitic pneumonia]] - due to aspiration of eggs and larvae -> cellular infiltration of [[Neutrophils|neutrophils]], macrophages, giant cells
| |
| − | **Postpatent phase (weeks 8-12)
| |
| − | ***Majority of worms are expelled
| |
| − | ***In 25% of cases clinical signs may reappear as a result of alveolar epithelialisation
| |
| − | ***May be together with [[Lungs Ventilation - Pathology#Emphysema|interstitial emphysema]] and [[Lungs Circulatory - Pathology#Pulmonary oedema|pulmonary oedema]], or secondary bacterial infection
| |
| − | *Reinfection syndrome:
| |
| − | **Immune cattle show clinical signs only if exposed to large numbers
| |
| − | **Pathogenesis - large numbers of larvae reach bronchioles where they are killed by immune response
| |
| − | **Pathology - parasite granulomata (grey-green, 5mm diameter, macrophages, giant cells, eosinophils) and eosinophilic plugs in bronchioles
| |
| − | <small>Above from RVC Parasitology study guide (2005-2006)</small>
| |
| − | *Preferentially in dorsocaudaland ventrocaudal regions
| |
| − | | |
| − | *Histologically
| |
| − | **Bronchial epithelium may show hyperplasia due to the chronic irritation
| |
| − | **Cross-sections of the parasites
| |
| − | **Exudate contains many eosinophils
| |
| − | **Foci of necrosis in the rest of the lung tissue due to aspiration of eggs and larvae fromhese adults
| |
| − | **In mild infestations, the adults are normally expelled in two months - self cure
| |
| − | *Repeated infestation and secondary bacterial infection are common
| |
| − | | |
| − | *Two other types of lesion in lung tissue due to this worm have been reported:
| |
| − | **Nodules (2-4mm in diameter) with greenish centres in the reinfection of an immune animal - the host mounting a successful defence and preventing larval migration
| |
| − | **Pulmonary oedema and emphysema - thought to be a hypersensitivity response to a massive invasion of larvae in previously- sensitised animals - the gross and microscopic appearance is similar to that of [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Acute bovine pulmonary emphysema and oedema (ABPEE)|fog fever]]

| |
| − | | |
| − | *The intermediate stage of [[Cestodes|''Echinococcus granulosus'']] can be found in the lungs of many species, most commonly in lungs of cattle and sheep
| |
| − | *They range in size up to 5-10 cm diameter and although of little clinical significance, are important as a zoonosis (can be upto football size in man) and because of carcass condemnation
