https://doi.org/10.12737/21661
Abstract
Objective of research: to investigate the clinical features of acute opisthorchiasis in rabbits.
Materials and methods: Clinical evidence of acute opisthorchiasis in rabbits, laboratory blood tests.
Results and discussion: Skin lesions in the form of cracks and ulcers of various sizes in the neck, thoracic back and croup, mostly localized along the spine, were clinically identified in acute opisthorchiasis of rabbits. Weight loss within the first month was up to 300 –500 grams. Laboratory tests showed that one month later, the level of blood glucose in the infected animals was 3 times higher than in controls. Compared with the controls, a reduced number of red blood cells and hemoglobin level in animals of the experimental group was observed, leukopenia was determined. The blood coagulation time was significantly accelerated.
