Canine hepatozoonosis (CH) is a disease transmitted by ingestion of ticks infected with Hepatozoon canis that can cause severe clinical signs depending on host immunity. The objective of this work was to detect the presence of H. canis in blood samples from clinically healthy dogs from GreaterBuenos Aires through microscopic observation in smears of peripheral blood and buff y coat.Secondly, the prevalence of CH in the different neighbor hoods, the association between thevariables breed, sex, age and the presence of ticks with the positive hematological diagnosisof CH and the association between hematological alterations and the presence of CH weredetermined. Of the 207 samples, 10 (4.83%) were positive by observation in peripheral bloodsmears and 15 (7.24%) in pH logistic layer smears. With respect to the variables evaluated, CHwas more frequent in adults, females, mixed-breed and with the presence of ticks; however, thedifferences were not significant. The highest percent age of positive samples was observed inthose patients from the neighbor hoods of Solano and Quilmes. With respect to the hematologicalalterations, anemia (20%), leukocytosis (40%), lymphocytosis (26.6%) and eosinophilia(80%) were higher in the group of positive samples to CH, however, the differences were notsignificant (p>0.05). There four study corroborate the endemic of CH in Greater Buenos Airesand show that the prevalence varies with the area from which the samples were obtained andthe moment in which the study was conducted. In addition, it reflects the use fullness of theleukocyte concentration to increase the probabilities of positive observation of gamontes whenmolecular methods are not available. |

La hepatozoonosis canina (HC) es una enfermedad transmitida por la ingestión de garrapatas infectadas con Hepatozoon canis que puede causar signos clínicos graves dependiendo de la inmunidad del hospedador. El objetivo de este trabajo fue detectar la presencia de H. canis en muestras de caninos sin signología provenientes del Gran Buenos Aires a través de la observación microscópica en extendidos de sangre periférica y capa flogística. Posteriormente, se determinó la casuística de la HC en los diferentes barrios, la asociación entre las variables raza, sexo, edad y la presencia de garrapatas con el diagnóstico hematológico positivo de HC y la asociación entre las alteraciones del hemograma y la presencia de HC. De las 207 muestras 10 (4,83%) fueron positivas mediante la observación en frotis de sangre periférica y 15 (7,24%) en frotis de sangre periférica y extendidos de la capa flogística. Con respecto a las variables evaluadas, la HC fue más frecuente en adultos, hembras, de raza mestiza y con presencia de garrapatas, no obstante las diferencias no fueron significativas. El mayor porcentaje de muestras positivas se observó en aquellos pacientes provenientes de los barrios de Solano y Quilmes. En relación a las alteraciones hematológicas en el grupo de muestras positivas a HC se observó anemia (20%), leucocitosis (40%), linfocitosis (26,6%) y eosinofilia (80%) en un mayor porcentaje con respecto al grupo de muestras negativas, no obstante las diferencias entre ambos grupos no fueron significativas (p>0,05). Este estudio corrobora la endemicidad de la HC en el Gran Buenos Aires y demuestra que la prevalencia varía con la procedencia de las muestras y del momento en que se realiza el estudio. Asimismo, refleja la utilidad de la concentración leucocitaria para aumentar las probabilidades de observación positiva de gamontes cuando no se disponga de métodos moleculares.
