The nematode Diplotridena henryi (Nematoda : Diplotriaenoidea) as the possible cause of subcutaneous emphysema and respiratory insufficiency in a great tit (Parus major).

Original language description

During the postbreeding months in 2001, we were trapping birds in a north-eastern Slovakia. Parasitological and haematological examinations of the birds were performed. In the course of our research, we examined 158 great tits and one of them showed thesigns of subcutaneous emphysema on the left side of its body in the region from knee to wing and neck; minor emphysema was observed between cloaca and sternum. When handling the bird, it died without any apparent reason. We noticed that rigor mortis cameimmediately after the bird had died. The postmortem examination proved the presence of three nematodes Diplotriaena henryi in pectoral cavity. Moreover, histological examination showed pulmonary oedema and a solitary hepatic granuloma. These lesions could have resulted from D. henryi parasitic infection, respiratory insufficiency and trapping stress.
