摘要

Filaria taxideae is a common subcutaneous filarial parasite of American badgers (Taxidea taxus) that has also been reported in skunks in the Western USA. Dermatitis associated with this parasite has been reported in badgers and skunks; however, many individuals have no gross lesions. With the exception of a captive red panda in California, there have been no reports of F. taxidae infection in domestic or exotic/pet animals. In this case series, we document F. taxideae in domestic ferrets from California, Texas, and Colorado and describe the clinical presentation, gross and histologic lesions, and the molecular characterization of this parasite. In two cases, ferrets were positive on Dirofilaria immitis antigen tests but had no evidence of heartworm infection suggesting that F. taxideae antigens can cross-react. These findings indicate that F. taxideae should be considered in cases of dermatitis in ferrets in areas where this parasite may occur.

Filaria taxideae是美国獾（Taxidea taxus）常见的皮下丝虫寄生虫，在美国西部的臭鼬中也有报道。据报道，这些寄生虫引起的皮炎是獾和臭鼬;然而，许多人没有严重的病变。除加利福尼亚的圈养红熊猫外，没有关于家庭或外来/宠物动物的F. taxidae感染的报道。在本案例系列中，我们记录了来自加利福尼亚州，德克萨斯州和科罗拉多州的家庭雪貂中的F. taxideae，并描述了这种寄生虫的临床表现，大体和组织病变以及分子特征。在两个案例中，雪貂对Dirofilaria immitis抗原检测呈阳性，但没有心丝虫感染的证据表明F. taxideae抗原可以交叉反应。这些研究结果表明，在可能发生这种寄生虫的地区，雪貂皮炎的病例应考虑到F. taxideae。
