Fifty-one badgers (51\/64, 80%) were infected. Both adult badgers (30\/32, 94%) and juvenile badgers (21\/32, 67%) were infected by adult filarial worms, which occurred most commonly in subcutaneous tissues of the inguinal area, proximal thigh, and ventral abdomen. Sections of formalin-fixed skin and, from many badgers, subcutaneous lymph nodes were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, Jones' methenamine silver (for basement membrane), and an avidin biotin peroxidase complex method (for factor VIII-related antigen). Superficial dermatitis attributable to embryonated filarial ova and larvae was present in 26\/64 badgers (41 %), all of them adult (&gt; 1 year old). Acute lesions consisted of multifocal vesiculobullous dermoepidermal separation and superficial perivascular dermatitis. Ultrastructural examination and Jones' silver-stained sections revealed separation between basal keratinocytes and the basal lamina (subepidermal vesiculation). Older lesions consisted of ulcerative superficial granulomatous dermatitis associated with ova and larvae. Multifocal granulomatous endolymphangitis, which involved afferent lymphatics of subcutaneous lymph nodes, was associated with viable as well as degenerative ova and larvae. Adult filarial worms were found in the subcutis alone and did not provoke an inflammatory reaction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/030098589303000403","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,3,8]],"date-time":"2010-03-08T17:19:33Z","timestamp":1268068773000},"page":"343-351","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Subepidermal Vesiculobullous Filarial Dermatitis in Free-ranging American Badgers\n                    <i>(Taxidea taxus)<\/i>"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"D.","family":"O'Toole","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Sciences, University of Wyoming, Laramie, WY"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"E.
