[Arterial repair after mechanical injury by migrating fourth-stage larvae of Strongylus vulgaris in the horse (a light and electron microscopic study) (author's transl)].
BACKGROUND
Migrating fourth-stage larvae of Strongylus vulgaris, a parasite of equines, damage the intima of the anterior mesenteric artery and its larger branches and induce thrombus formation on the injured sites. As the time of larval passage through each of these branches has been exactly determined in earlier experiments, the aim of the present studies is to contribute to a more complete understanding of repair mechanisms in the process of time after thrombotic vascular injuries.


METHODS
five foals were separated individually to specially cleaned stables and given anthelmintic treatment till the age of one year. One foal was infected per os with 350, the second with 500 and the remaining three with 1,000 third-stage larvae of Strongylus vulgaris...
