This study aimed to describe the gross and histologic aspects of cutaneous lesions caused by tick infestation in cattle. Thirteen cases were selected based on necropsy data from a 10-year retrospective study. Predispositions were observed in beef cattle ( P = .049) and the Angus breed ( P = .012), and lesions occurred mainly in the fall ( P = .007). Gross lesions included hypotrichosis (13\/13; 100%), scales (12\/13; 92%), alopecia (11\/13; 85%), ulcers (7\/13; 54%), crusts (7\/13; 54%), and erosions (2\/13; 15%). These gross lesions were mainly located in the thorax (12\/13; 92%), head (11\/13; 85%), abdomen (10\/13; 77%), neck (9\/13; 69%), limbs (9\/13; 69%), and perineum (9\/13; 69%). Histologically, all cases had ticks adhered to the epidermis with erosions (13\/13; 100%), ulcers (11\/13; 85%), orthokeratotic hyperkeratosis (13\/13; 100%), irregular acanthosis (13\/13; 100%), intraepidermal pustules (13\/13; 100%), crusts (10\/13; 77%), and ballooning degeneration (4\/13; 31%). In the dermis, just below the tick insertion site, there was coagulation necrosis, fibrin deposition, and inflammatory infiltrate composed of mixed cells (neutrophils, lymphocytes, plasma cells, macrophages, and few eosinophils) (9\/13; 69%), neutrophils (3\/13; 23%), or eosinophils (1\/13; 8%). This study reinforces the different patterns of cutaneous lesions caused by tick infestation in cattle, which should be considered as a potential cause of dermatitis in this species.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/03009858231217207","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,26]],"date-time":"2023-12-26T08:29:22Z","timestamp":1703579362000},"page":"582-589","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Characterization of cutaneous lesions caused by natural tick infestation in cattle"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"61","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4245-1657","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stella Maris P.","family":"Melo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4247-7478","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Igor R.","family":"Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5859-6335","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bruno A.","family":"Almeida","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Luciana","family":"Sonne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Welden","family":"Panziera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Driemeier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8980-6294","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Saulo P.","family":"Pavarini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-03009858231217207","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/03009858231189456"},{"key":"bibr2-03009858231217207","unstructured":"Andreotti R, Garcia MV, Koller WW.
