Abstract

The present study was carried on 61 slaughtered camels from which livers and mesenteric lymph nodes were examined parasitologically and pathologically. Macroscopical examination revealed infection with Dicrocoelium dendriticum in one liver and Linguatula serrata in lymph nodes of three camels. The presence
of D. dendriticum in camel liver is considered as the first record of this trematode in Egypt. The pathological changes in the liver due to Dicrocoelium infection were thickening and dilatation of the bile ducts. Section from the worm was observed inside the lumen of some ducts. Likewise, proliferation of the bile duct epithelium, severe periportal cirrhosis with atrophy of the hepatocytes could be seen. In the lymph nodes, nymphs of L. serrata were seen within the medulla accompanied by thickening of the trabeculae.
