“…The severity of babesiosis is related to the extent of parasite replication in the host's red blood cells with subsequent cell lysis. A wide variation of clinical signs like anorexia, lethargy, haemolytic anaemia, icterus, vomition and marked loss of body condition have been observed (Ettinger and Feldman 2005;Vial and Gorenflot 2006) along with variable clinicopathologic abnormalities including ascites, haemoglobinuria, hypoglycemia, acid-base disturbances, azotemia and elevations in the levels of liver enzymes (Irwin 2010). Paraplegia is one such sign that has been rarely reported (Jacobson 2006).…”

A 4 year old male Rottweiler was presented to Teaching Veterinary Clinics of GADVASU with a primary complaint of paraplegia, fever and inappetence. The dog was found to be dull with elevated rectal temperature (105°F), heart rate (158 per minute) and respiration rate (57 per minute). Blood smear examination and PCR assay revealed that dog was positive for Babesia gibsoni. Elevated bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, creatinine, total leucocyte count, neutrophils and hypoglycaemia were haemato-biochemical alterations. The therapy targeting babesiosis was carried out with a single dose of diminazene aceturate in combination with doxycycline, enrofloxacin and metronidazole for 21 days. Complete follow up of the case revealed complete clinical recovery within 21 days.

“…Vial et al, (2006) observed that imidocarb given at 2 mg kg -1 body weight two times at 24-hrs interval and 4 mg kg -1 body weight four times at 72 hrs intervals appears effective for Babesia caballi and T. equi in horses respectively. The significant decrease in blood Hg, PCV and RBC observed in this report conform with the findings of Hailat et al, (1997) in Jordan and Butler et al, (2005) in France but the anaemia in this study was macrocytic normochromic in nature.…”
