This nematode, belonging to the family Dioctophymatidae, has a complex life cycle involving multiple hosts. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of <jats:italic>Eustrongylides<\/jats:italic> nematodes in Northern pike (<jats:italic>E. Lucius<\/jats:italic>) collected from Mijran Dam (Ramsar, Iran). Between June and October 2023, an investigation was conducted on Northern pike from Mijran Dam in Ramsar, Iran, following reports of reddish parasites in their muscle tissues. Sixty fish were examined at the University of Tehran, revealing live parasites in the muscles, which were then analyzed microscopically and preserved for a multidisciplinary study. The skeletal muscle tissues of 85% (51\/60) of fish specimens were infected by grossly visible larvae which were microscopically identified as <jats:italic>Eustrongylides<\/jats:italic> spp. In histopathological examination, the lesion was composed of encapsulated parasitic granulomatous myositis. Microscopically, the cystic parasitic granulomas compressed the adjacent muscle fibers, leading to their atrophy and Zenker\u2019s necrosis. Moreover, epithelioid macrophages, giant cells and mononuclear inflammatory cells were present around the larvae and between the muscle fibers. Finally, a molecular analysis by examining the ITS gene region, revealed that they belong to the species <jats:italic>E. excisus<\/jats:italic>. Eustrongylidiasis in northern Iran necessitates further research into the biology, epidemiology, and control of <jats:italic>Eustrongylides<\/jats:italic> nematodes, focusing on various hosts. This study is the first to comprehensively characterize <jats:italic>E. excisus<\/jats:italic> in Northern pike in Ramsar, Iran, raising concerns about possible zoonotic transmission.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12917-024-04146-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,4]],"date-time":"2024-07-04T10:01:57Z","timestamp":1720087317000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Histopathological, morphological, and molecular characterization of fish-borne zoonotic parasite Eustrongylides Excisus infecting Northern pike (Esox lucius) in Iran"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Hooman","family":"Rahmati-Holasoo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohammad","family":"Azizzadeh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hosseinali","family":"Ebrahimzadeh Mousavi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sara","family":"Shokrpoor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zahra","family":"Ziafati Kafi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amin","family":"Marandi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"4146_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"Anderson JL, Asche F, Garlock T, Chu J, Aquaculture.
