Popis: | A female 1-year-old dog died suddenly and was submitted for necropsy. Numerous grey-tan-colored nodules were seen in the lungs, brain and lymph nodes. Microscopically, the predominant lesion was necrosis associated with numerous Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites. The parasites reacted positively with anti-T. gondii serum in an immunohistochemical test. Schizonts of Hepatozoon canis were seen in sections of lymph nodes and the spleen. |
