Eurytrema procyonis in a New York fox.

G L Foley, W I Anderson, M E Georgi

    The Cornell Veterinarian
    |April 1, 1987
    PubMed
    Summary

    A fox with canine distemper virus showed Eurytrema procyonis parasites in its pancreatic duct. This co-infection led to inflammation and cellular changes in the pancreas and other organs.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Pathology
    • Parasitology
    • Virology

    Background:

    • Canine distemper virus (CDV) is a significant pathogen in carnivores.
    • Eurytrema procyonis is a pancreatic fluke found in various mammals.

    Observation:

    • A fox presented with clinical signs suggestive of systemic illness.
    • Post-mortem examination revealed parasitic organisms within the pancreatic duct.

    Findings:

    • Histopathology confirmed the presence of multiple Eurytrema procyonis trematodes within the major pancreatic duct.
    • Associated findings included ductal epithelial hyperplasia, mild periductal fibrosis, and ductal dilatation.
    • Eosinophilic intracytoplasmic inclusions, characteristic of canine distemper virus infection, were observed in the epithelium of multiple organs, including the pancreas.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the potential for co-infection with Eurytrema procyonis and canine distemper virus in foxes.
    • The concurrent presence of these pathogens may exacerbate pancreatic pathology.
    • Further research is needed to understand the synergistic effects and clinical significance of this co-infection.
