Reports of intussusception in sea turtles are generally linked to marine debris ingestion; therefore, only a few cases of the disease are associated with parasitic infestations. The objective of this study was to describe the necropsy findings of the first reported case of colocolic intussusception in a green sea turtle Chelonia mydas, associated with the helminth Octangium sp. A juvenile female green sea turtle, which was registered and rescued by the team from the Cetaceans Project of Costa Branca, State University of Rio Grande do Norte, was examined. The animal died 1 d after being treated and was immediately submitted for necropsy. Our findings indicated that parasitic infestation by Octangium sp. in the green sea turtle caused intussusception and consequently led to the animal’s death. Early diagnosis and surgical correction are fundamental for a good prognosis and, consequently, for successful rehabilitation of marine species.

结肠肠套叠与 Octangium sp. 相关。(Digenea: Microscaphidiidae) 在绿海龟 Chelonia mydas

海龟肠套叠的报告通常与摄入海洋垃圾有关;因此,只有少数病例与寄生虫感染有关。本研究的目的是描述与蠕虫Octangium sp.相关的绿海龟Chelonia mydas中第一个报告的结肠肠套叠病例的尸检结果。由北里奥格兰德州立大学科斯塔布兰卡鲸类项目的团队登记并救助的一只幼年雌性绿海龟接受了检查。动物在治疗后1天死亡并立即进行尸检。我们的研究结果表明Octangium 的寄生虫侵染sp. 在绿海龟中引起肠套叠并因此导致动物死亡。早期诊断和手术矫正是良好预后的基础,因此对于海洋物种的成功康复至关重要。
