Gastric gnathostomiasis in a cat.

C E Kirkpatrick, J B Lok, M H Goldschmidt

    Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association
    |June 1, 1987
    PubMed
    Summary

    A cat stomach mass revealed a Gnathostoma worm, causing a pseudogranuloma. This aberrant host case highlights potential parasite transmission from wildlife to domestic animals.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Pathology
    • Parasitology

    Background:

    • Gnathostoma species typically infect wild mammals.
    • Domestic animals can act as aberrant hosts for parasites.

    Observation:

    • A 10-year-old cat presented with a gastric mass.
    • Histopathological examination identified a female Gnathostoma worm within the mass.

    Findings:

    • The gastric mass was characterized as a muscular pseudogranuloma.
    • The cat was identified as an aberrant host for an unknown Gnathostoma species.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the potential for zoonotic disease transmission.
    • Understanding aberrant host infections is crucial for veterinary diagnostics and public health.
