1989
S. M. Amin Babjee | Noordin M. | Lee, C. C.
Taenia hydatigena, an exotic tapeworm, is capable of completing its life cycle in domestic animals. A local puppy fed with metacestodes of T. hydatigena derived from Australian imported sheep produced adult tapeworms. Gravid segments when fed to a local lamb caused acute cysticercoses due to large numbers of migrating metacestodes. The gross pathological changes observed on post mortem are described.
