The adult parasites are found in the pulmonary arterial circulation and the right side of the heart. The most common clinical sign is respiratory dysfunction. Bleeding, neurological, ocular, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal disorders are also reported. Skin lesions are very unusual.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Hypothesis\/Objectives<\/jats:title><jats:p>This report describes a nematode dermatitis due to <jats:italic>A.\u00a0vasorum<\/jats:italic> infection.

Two weeks later the dog developed respiratory distress.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods and results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Skin scrapings and fungal culture were negative for parasites and dermatophytes.
