Microfilaremic Dirofilaria repens Infection in Patient from Serbia
Emerging Infectious Diseases(2023)
Abstract
We report a case of Dirofilaria repens infection causing microfilaremia in a patient from Serbia. Serum samples tested positive for D. repens IgG by ELISA. Our findings and those of others suggest the parasite's progressive adaptation to humans. Clinicians should be aware that microfilaremia can develop during Dirofilaria spp. infections.
