    Notes: Summary A Meckel's diverticulum is the result of an incomplete obliteration of the omphalomesenteric, or vitelline, duct. The duct connects the midgut to the yolk sac of the developing intestinal tract and normally atrophies by the eighth to ninth week of gestation. This event fails to occur in approximately two percent of the population, resulting in the congenital anomaly named after Johann Friedrich Meckel, who first characterized this diverticulum in 1809. Our patient presented with signs and symptoms consistent with a small bowel obstruction secondary to an incarcerated hernia, and underwent emergent laparotomy. An ischemie small bowel segment with a Meckel's diverticulum was resected. Pathology revealed ectopic pancreatic tissue within the diverticulum. Meckel's diverticula have been observed among the contents of hernia sacs in various locations including the inguinal, femoral, and umbilical regions. We report a case of a Meckel's diverticulum presenting in a spontaneous ventral (epigastric) hernia.

    The ability of microfilariae to evade in vitro cell-mediated cytotoxicity (1986)
    Springer
    Parasitology research 72 (1986), S. 241-249 
    Details

    Notes: Abstract When microfilariae (Mf) ofDirofilaria immitis, both uterine and systemic, were incubated in an in vitro cytotoxicity assay with neutrophils and sera from dogs with occult infections, some Mf remained free of adherent cells and consequently evaded cytotoxicity. The ability to evade cytotoxicity could not be related to the age of the Mf, and host albumin was not detected on any Mf, either uterine or systemic. However, it was shown that some Mf failed to bind IgM, IgG and C3 when incubated with occult sera. It is suggested that the ability of some Mf to evade serum-dependent, neutrophil-mediated cytotoxicity in vitro was related to differences in their antigenicity.

    Immunohistological observations on pulmonary tissues from dogs infected withDirofilaria immitis (1993)

    Notes: Abstract Pulmonary tissues from non-infected dogs, naturallyDirofilaria immitis-infected dogs and experimentally infected puppies, selectively necropsied after infection, were assessed using peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) staining technology. Sequential sections of pulmonary tissue were PAP stained with anti-freshD. immitis serum, anti-paraffin processedD. immitis serum, anti-dog immunoglobulin (IgG, IgG Fc, IgM) sera and anti-dog complement (C3) serum, and examined for antibody, complement and forD. immitis antigen. The extent of alveolar septal thickening was positively correlated with infection status. Cellular infiltration was most evident surrounding obstructed areas whereD. immitis werein situ. Antigenic material (microfilariae, eggs, fragmented filariae) labelled by PAP was identified in the pulmonary arteries, alveolar capillaries and alveolar septa. Deposits of complement and IgG, presumably associated with immune complex formation, were also observed in some of the infected dogs. Identification of antigen, antibodies and complement associated with alveolar septal pathology suggested that immune mechanisms were active in its development.
