Abstract

Cachexia and dehydration were detected as the clinical sign and sudden death occurred in a long-eared owl which was brought to Veterinary Health Practice and Research Center of Afyon Kocatepe University by officers of National Parks. As a result of necropsy, ingluvitis, proventriculitis, esophagitis and the parasites were detected throughout these organs. Furthermore, mild purulent bronchopneumonia, wide hemorrhages in lungs, severe hyperaemia among all tissues and organs were detected in the long-eared owl. After examination of one parasite which was sent to parasitology laboratory, it was diagnosed as Dispharynx nasuta. This case is the first report of Dispharynx nasuta from an owl in Turkey.

Özet

Milli Parklar görevlilerince Afyon Kocatepe Üniversitesi Veteriner Sağlık Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezine getirilen kulaklı orman baykuşunda klinik olarak kaşekşi ve dehidrasyon tespit edilmiş ve ani ölüm gerçekleşmiştir. Nekropsi sonucunda ingluvitis, proventriculitis, esophagitis ve bu organlarda parazitlere rastlanmıştır. Bunun yanında baykuşta, orta şiddette purulent bronkopnömoni, akciğerlerde geniş kanamalar, tüm doku ve organlarda şiddetli hiperemi tespit edilmiştir. Parazitoloji laboratuvarına gönderilen 1 tane parazitin incelenmesi neticesinde Dispharynx nasuta olduğu teşhis edilmiştir. Bu olgu Türkiye'de baykuşlarda ilk bildirim olmuştur.
