First Confirmed Case of Cerebrospinal Setariosis in Goat in Taiwan

台灣首件山羊腦脊髓指狀絲狀蟲症

摘要


台灣東部的台東縣,一隻有痲痺及癲癇症狀的山羊發現某大腦導水管中存有指狀絲狀蟲(Setaria digitata)的雌性幼蟲。在其脊髓液塗抹片中有嗜中性白血球存在, 然而中樞神經系統中並沒有分出離出好氧或厭氧性細菌。其血清肌酸磷激酵素(CK)值增加為正常值的800倍,分析CK異酵素發現其100%都是屬於MM型, 而其可能的原因在本報告中也被討論。這是台灣的山羊首件被證實存有腦脊髓性絲狀蟲症的病例。

並列摘要


A female larva of Setaria digitata was found in the cerebral aqueduct of a paraIyzed and epileptic goat in Taitung, eastern Taiwan. This is the first confirmed case of cerebrospinal setariosis in goat in Taiwan. Neutrophils were observed in the spinal fluid smears and no aerobic nor anaerobic bacteria were isolated from the central nervous system. Serum creatine phosphokinase (CK) of the goat at necropsy was more than eight hundred-fold of the normal value. The CK isoenzyme consisted of 100% of the MM type and none of the BB type.
