*Adult worms block small [[Bronchi and Bronchioles Inflammatory - Pathology#Infectious causes of bronchitis or bronchiolitis|bronchioles]] resulting in accumulation of eggs, larvae and cellular debri distal to the blockage
  −
*Lesions resemble [[Respiratory Parasitic Infections - Pathology#Dictyocaulus filaria|''Dictyocaulus filaria'']] but are fewer in numbers, lobular and at periphery of caudal lobes, they are very similar to [[Respiratory Parasitic Infections - Pathology#Muellerius capillaris|''Muellerius capillaris'']] lesions

===[[Metastrongyloidae|''Muellerius capillaris'']]===

*Common in sheep and goats
  −
*Rarely any clinical significance
  −
*Grossly:
  −
**Multifocal [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Interstitial pneumonia|interstitial]] [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Infectious causes of pneumonia|pneumonia]] grossly evident as firm "lead-shot" nodules throughout the parenchyma, often with enveloping granulomatous response
  −
**Early stages are reddish in colour, turning later to greyish green, may calcify
  −
**Mostly in dorsal region of caudal lung lobes
  −
*Histologically:
  −
**Damaged alveolar septa with mild fibrous thickening and lymphocytic infiltrate
  −
**In more developed host resistance, foci of eosinophils around larvae, hyperplastic epithelium, macrophages, giant cells
  −
**May be some calcification

*Most susceptible when first exposed to contaminated pasture

*Animals < 1 year old

*Pathogenesis and pathology similar to [[Respiratory Parasitic Infections - Pathology#Dictyocaulus viviparus|''Dictyocaulus viviparus'']] in cattle

*Grossly:

**Adult worms in bronchi and bronchioles
  −
*Histologically:
  −
**Catarrhal and eosinophilic bronchitis and bronchiolitis

*Larvae may be infected with [[Respiratory Viral Infections - Pathology#Swine influenza|Swine influenza]]
  −
*May cause severe pneumonia in calves housed where infected pigs were housed previously
  −
*Cause diffuse [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Interstitial pneumonia|interstitial pneumonia]] with haemorrhage, [[Lungs Ventilation - Pathology#Atelectasis (Collapse)|atelectasis]], [[Lungs Circulatory - Pathology#Pulmonary oedema|interlobular oedema]] and [[Lungs Ventilation - Pathology#Emphysema|emphysema]]
