An African Canine Trypanosomosis Case Import: Is There a Possibility of Creating a Secondary Focus of Trypanosoma congolense Infection in France?

et al. 2020

African animal trypanosomosis are parasitic diseases caused by several protozoa of the genus Trypanosoma, transmitted by hematophagous insects, essentially tsetse flies, but also, less frequently by Tabanidae and Stomoxidae. They are geolocated in a part of the continent and affect livestock animals and carnivores; dogs are especially sensitive to them. They do not seem to present a zoonotic risk. Despite the chemical prevention with trypanocides for French military working dogs on mission in Côte d’Ivoire, a fatal case induced by Trypanosoma congolense in France after returning from Abidjan raises the question of an imported secondary focus. The clinical case was developed and the causative agent was confirmed by microscopy and PCR methods. The three necessary pillars to create a secondary potential focus are present: the parasite introduction in a new territory, the presence and the propagation vectors, and their proximity with sensitive species.

“…A concurrent role for biting flies cannot be excluded despite the very low fly burden and the absence of eosinophilic folliculitis/furunculosis. 1 Because of their small size and tiny mouthparts, chigger mites generally attach to areas of thin skin, especially where hosts have contact with plants when grazing or lying down. This is consistent with the lesion distribution (dewlap, limbs, perineum).…”

“…In cattle, eosinophilic dermatitis is attributed mainly to scabies, insect bites or subcutaneous filariae. [1][2][3] There are few reports on the clinical consequences of infestation by harvest mites in cattle. 4,5 In carnivores and horses, dermatohistopathological findings include varying degrees of superficial perivascular to interstitial dermatitis with numerous eosinophils.…”

Eosinophilic dermatitis was observed in skin samples from Jersey cows, sampled in mid-October in southwest France. The inflammatory response was considered to be the result of Trombiculidae bites. Clinical signs were assumed to be due partly to self-trauma and included patchy alopecia with crusted papules; lesions were observed on the jaws, dewlap, perineum and distal limbs. Identified parasites were larvae of Leptotrombidium spp. The lesions had completely self-resolved by December.
