| 中文描述 | 氣管線蟲（DICTYOCAULUS ARNFIELDI）是一種馬的肺蟲。在肯塔基州中部超過10％的馬匹在解剖時發現肺蟲。用Baermann氏法檢查糞便中的幼蟲診斷馬匹是很不可靠的，因為還有很多其他感染，但是幼蟲會由驢子傳播；必須控制和馬匹一起放牧驢子的肺蟲。可見到幼蟲於離心過的氣管沖洗黏液中。因為多數馬匹臨床肺蟲感染都維持在潛伏期，所以對治療的反應可以用來幫助診斷。 |

| 英文描述 | DICTYOCAULUS ARNFIELDI is the equine lungworm. Over 10% of horses in central Kentucky had lungworm at necropsy. Baermann technique for examination of feces for larvae is unreliable for diagnosis in horses due to many nonpatent infections, but larvae are passed by donkeys; must control lungworm in donkeys grazing with horses. Might see larvae in centrifuged mucus from a tracheal wash. Because most clinical lungworm in horses remains prepatent, response to treatment is used to help make the diagnosis. |
