Tricomoníase em tucano-toco (Ramphastos toco): relato de caso

Abstract

Resumo: Introdução: A tricomoníase é uma doença parasitaria, ocasionada pelo protozoário Trichomonas gallinae, é caracterizada pela formação de lesões caseosas, proliferativas e fibronecróticas no trato gastrointestinal e respiratório das aves. Métodos: No presente relato, aborda-se um caso de achados post mortem em um espécime de tucano-toco (Ramphastos toco). Resultados: Macroscopicamente a ave apresentava uma lesão amarelada no bico. O pericárdio contava com pequenas massas amareladas aderidas e dispostas sob toda sua extensão e sob a pleura. Os sacos aéreos apresentaram áreas espessas com formação de espuma e os pulmões apresentaram áreas enegrecidas. Foi identificada hepatomegalia, com uma substância amarelada recobrindo toda a extensão do órgão. Microscopicamente os achados mais relevantes foram nos pulmões, com áreas de atelectasia nos parabrônquios e, áreas multifocais de necrose associadas a infiltrado inflamatório heterofílico e neutrofílico, com a presença de células gigantes e formação de granulomas. Em fígado foi identificado congestão multifocal moderada e colestase discreta. Conclusão: Os achados encontrados são condizentes com os descritos na literatura para outros relatos de tricomoníase aviaria em outras espécies. Este é o primeiro relato brasileiro de Trichomonas gallinae na família Ramphastidae.
