Liver flukes in dogs and treatment with praziquantel.

R K Schuster1, J Heidrich, A Pauly, K Nöckler.   

Abstract

Opisthorchiid eggs were found in 6 out of 27 (22%) huskies while an ELISA detected antibodies against Opisthorchis felineus and Metorchis bilis in 24 (89%) and 25 (93%) sera taken from these dogs, respectively. All dogs showed an increased activity of glutamate dehydrogenase while aspartate aminotransferase was normal in all samples. Ten weeks after treatment with praziquantel no fluke eggs were found in the faeces from any animal and antibody titres dropped in all animals.
