“…This parasite has dogs, cats and raccoons as its definitive hosts (Bowman, 2014) and can determine a zoonosis called sparganosis (Mentz et al, 2011). The infection by Spirometra was also reported in Puma concolor and Panthera onca in Perú (TANTALEÁN; Michaud, 2005), in Leopardus colocolo in Brazil (Gresseler at al., 2016) and other felids, as observed by Khatun et al (2014), in lions in captive condition in Bangladesh and snakes (Almeida et al, 2016).…”

The objective was to identify the gastrointestinal parasites of wild animals received by the Center for Screening of Wild Animals from São Luis, Maranhão State, Brazil. The fecal samples were collected from 297 animals, of which 150 (50.5%) were birds, 132 (44.5%) mammals and 15 (5%) reptiles. A total of 262 samples (227 individual and 35 pools) were analyzed by the method of sedimentation and flotation, 102 animals were parasitized by helminthes and/or protozoa, 39 of which belonged to the order Primate, 18 to the Carnivorous order and 12 to the Psittaciformes order. The mammals had the greatest diversity of eggs of gastrointestinal parasites: Strongyloides sp., hookworm type, Spirometra sp., Ascaris sp., Trichuris vulpis, Capillaria sp., Strongyloidea, Ancylostomidae , taenid and oocysts of coccidian. In the samples of birds were diagnosed eggs of the genera Dispharynx, Ascaridia, Echinostoma and oocyst of coccidian. In the reptiles, the number of gastrointestinal parasites was low, being identified oocyst of coccidian in three jiboia (Boa constrictor) and Capillaria sp. in an iguana (Iguana iguana). It was concluded that wild animals act as hosts for various species of parasites and to establish the dynamics and parasitic fauna of these animals at the screening center is an excellent alternative for studies ex situ. RESUMOObjetivou-se identificar os parasitos gastrintestinais de animais silvestres recepcionados pelo Centro de Triagem de Animais Silvestres de São Luís, Maranhão. As amostras fecais foram coletadas entre agosto de 2006 a julho de 2008, totalizando 297 animais, dos quais 150 (50,5%) foram aves, 132 (44,5%) mamíferos e 15 (5%) répteis. Do total de 262 amostras (227 individuais e 35 pools) analisadas pelo método de sedimentação simples e flutuação, 102 animais estavam parasitados por helmintos e/ou protozoários, sendo que, 39 pertenciam à ordem Primata, 18 à Carnívora e 12 à Psittaciforme. Os mamíferos apresentaram a maior diversidade de ovos de parasitos gastrintestinais, como Strongyloides sp., ancilostomídeo, Spirometra sp., Ascaris sp., Trichuris vulpis, Capillaria sp., Strongyloidea, Ancilostomídeo e tenideos, além de oocistos de coccídios. Em amostras de aves identificaram-se ovos dos gêneros Dispharynx, Ascaridia, Echinostoma, e também de oocistos de coccídeos. Nos répteis, o número de parasitos gastrintestinais foi baixo, sendo identificados oocisto de coccídeo em três jiboias (Boa constrictor) e Capillaria sp. em uma iguana (Iguana iguana). Concluiu-se que animais silvestres atuam como hospedeiros para diversas espécies de parasitos, e estabelecer a riqueza e a dinâmica da fauna parasitária desses animais nos centros de triagem é uma excelente alternativa para a realização de estudos ex situ.

Abstract The aim of the present study was to evaluate the state of knowledge about the helminthology of wild mammals in Argentine Patagonia and its link with the conservation of parasite species and biodiversity. To this end, the information included in the previously reported checklist of the helminths found in terrestrial wild mammals of Argentine Patagonia was completed and updated. The methodology used for the search was the same as that previously used, with slight modifications. Eighty-two species of mammals currently inhabit the region, and an additional six species are considered to have become extinct before the 20th century. The reports used to complete and update the information correspond to research done since 2015 to date. Considering the number of records analysed in the previously reported checklist and those of the current update, a total of 1918 helminthological reports for current Patagonian mammals and 2141 on mammal species that inhabited Patagonia before the 20th century were accounted for. It is important to point out that 41% of the 82 species of wild mammals currently inhabiting Patagonia have not been studied helminthologically; 38% of these without helminthological records are either threatened or do not have categorization, and 79% of mammals without helminthological studies have some degree of endemism. Therefore, in order to evaluate conservation priorities, the information about the parasitic richness in Patagonian wild mammals should be substantially increased, especially in those endangered or endemic.

“…La esparganosis por S. mansoni ha sido reportada en el mundo sobre la base de 450 casos conocidos, la mayoría estaban ubicados de Japón, China, Corea y el sudeste de Asia. En los Estados Unidos se han descrito cerca de 60 casos, y en Latinoamérica se han registrado 30 casos de S. mansonoides distribuidos en Uruguay, Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Ecuador, Colombia y Perú (9,10,11) .…”

“…En el Perú se han reportado casos de esparganosis en animales de Cajamarca y Loreto (10,15) y solo un caso humano se ha reportado en Argentina de un peruano que viajaba con frecuencia a Lima (16) . Los hospederos definitivos corresponden a los carnívoros de la familia Felidae, Puma concolor "Puma andino y puma selvático", Panthera orca "otorongo" y Leopardus pardalis "tigrillo" y a los cánidos scatler perro selvático (7,8,10) . Es posible la prevención de la plerocercoidiosis y espirometrosis evitando el consumo de agua no tratada de lagos y ríos situados en áreas endémicas; las personas que trabajan con felinos, caninos y roedores tienen un alto riesgo ocupacional.…”

La plerocercoidiosis es una zoonosis parasitaria producida por la larva plerocercoide de Spirometra. Esta larva migra por el tejido de la pared intestinal, mediante la ruta subcutánea y puede llegar a diferentes áreas del cuerpo humano como la cabeza, el cerebro y la órbita ocular. Se reporta el caso de un varón de 45 años procedente de la Amazonía peruana, quien presentó ardor asociado con edema y hemorragia conjuntival en el borde ocular externo del ojo derecho, durante once meses. Se observó un helminto localizado en la cavidad orbitaria derecha, el cual se extrajo y por estudios morfológicos e histopatológicos se identificó como Spirometra mansonoides de localización ocular el que se reporta por primera vez en el Perú.
