Clinical management of canine babesiosis

Abstract: Prognosis depends on the severity of disease, which in turn depends on both organism and host factors. Clinical syndromes associated with a poorer prognosis include red biliary syndrome, acute renal failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome, neurologic dysfunction, acute pancreatitis, cardiac dysfunction, and hypoglycemia.

“…The current diagnostic method of choice for both diagnosis and speciation of Babesia is PCR testing. 1,8 In the present case, morphologic appearance on the blood film and PCR seemed contradictory. Based upon the small size and signet-ring shape of the intraerythrocytic parasite seen on blood smear, it was thought that a small Babesia species (such as B. gibsoni) was the causative agent.…”

“…There currently are 4 species of Babesia that are known to infect canids within North America: B. canis, Babesia gibsoni, Babesia conradae, and a yet unnamed North Carolina Babesia species. 1,8 To the authors' knowledge, this is the first documented case of canine babesiosis in a captive maned wolf in North America. Babesiosis has previously been found in captive maned wolves in South America 5 and in other canid species, such as the red fox (Vulpes vulpes), and has been experimentally induced in coyotes (Canis latrans).…”
