Dirofilaria immitis in Dog Imported from Venezuela to Chile
Abstract
We report a case of Dirofilaria immitis nematode infection in a dog imported from Venezuela that had been living for 2 years in Santiago, Chile, where this parasite had not been reported before. Our findings warrant surveillance for all dogs imported to Chile, given that suitable condi-tions exist for establishing this parasite.
