Дирофиляриоз – трансмиссивное заболевание, вызываемое нематодой Dirofilaria immitis. Наиболее часто диагностируется у собак, однако у кошек также выявляется, хотя клиническая картина и подход к пациенту во многом различаются. В данной статье на примере клинического случая рассмотрены особенности течения, диагностика и лечение данной патологии у кошки.

Heartworm disease is a vector-borne disease caused by the nematode Dirofilaria immitis, traditionally considered as a disease in dogs. However, it is also detected in cats, although the clinical sings and diagnostic approach to the patient are significantly different. This article discusses some features of the clinical sings, diagnosis and treatment using the example of a clinical case of heartworm disease in a cat.
