![]() In Europe, four cases of Taenia martis cysticercosis have been diagnosed in immunocompetent women, and two cases in zoo primates since 2013. Rarely, larval stages of these parasites can cause serious zoonoses. while rodents act as natural intermediate hosts. In this article, we review the occurrence of zoonotic diseases in man and animals in Turkey in the light of the "One Health" perspective.read more read lessĪbstract: Wild mustelids and canids are definitive hosts of Taenia and Versteria spp. The "One Health" initiative is particularly relevant for developing strategies to combat zoonotic diseases. Additionally, many ectoparasitic zoonoses within 15 different arthropod groups and one leech infestation have been reported from Turkey to date. Numerous zoonotic diseases, including 37 bacterial, 13 fungal, 29 viral, 28 parasitic (3 trematodes, 7 cestodes, 10 nematodes, and 8 protozoan), and totally 107 infections, have been reported from Turkey to date. The natural location of Turkey allows many emerged or re-emerged infections with zoonotic characteristics by animal movements, such as bird immigrations, and by human movements due to civil wars as seen with regional refugees. In addition, environmental pollution and antimicrobial resistance are immense serious threats and dangers to prevent and control zoonotic infections. Global warming, environmental and ecological changes, illegal movement of animals and humans, regional civil wars, and poverty are predisposing factors for the emergence of zoonotic infections and their distribution worldwide they are also a big threat for the future. multiceps eggs.Ībstract: Zoonotic infections are globally important diseases and lead to huge economic losses in both low- and middle-income and high-income countries. ![]() The community should Control dog contact with pasture and have to properly dispose the brain of infected sheep and goats after slaughter also they should keep their hygiene to prevent ingestion of T. Regular anthelmintic treatment of dogs, correct disposal of sheep and goat brain are the main control method of coenurosis. Human get infected with coenurosis if ingests an egg of the parasite accidentally. The disease causes great economic loss in small ruminant production. Treatment of choice is by surgical removal of the cyst or by aspiration of fluid from the cyst also combination of Fenbendazole, praziquantel and albendazole is effective against migratory stage of the larvae. Diagnosis is mostly by necrosy while radiology, ultrasonography and CT can also be used. Circling, Dullness, torticollis, loss of appetite, frequent bleating, separation from the flock, visual impairment, muscle tremors are the main clinical signs related with coenurusis. When dog consume the brain containing coenurus cyst, cyst develop into taenia multiceps and then start to pass proglottid containing egg on pasture and intermediate hosts get infected when ingest eggs from pasture. ![]() The adult stage of this parasite inhabits the small intestine of dogs, foxes, coyotes and jackals while larvae are found in the brain and spinal cord of intermediate hosts. The life cycle is commonly happens between dog and small ruminants. ![]() Coenurosis occurs in worldwide and it is endemic in Ethiopia, especially in the highland area where sheep population is high. The aim of this paper is to review the general aspects of cerebral coenurosis in small ruminants’ and highlight its economic and public health significance. Cerebral Coenurosis is caused by larval stage of taenia multiceps known as coenurus cerebralis. TL DR: The aim of this paper is to review the general aspects of cerebral coenurosis in small ruminants’ and highlight its economic and public health significance.Ībstract: Cerebral coenurosis is an important disease affecting sheep and goat which causes significant economic losses in their production.
