Özet:

 Peritoneal tetrathyridiosis is a rare parasitic disease that occurs accidentally in various operations or necropsies due to its usually asymptomatic course in cats and dogs. However, tetrathyridium can cause chronic peritonitis with ascites and even fatal consequences in cats and dogs, sometimes. In this study, the prevalence of tetrathyridiosis cases was investigated in 897 cats and 12 057 dogs brought to Hatay Metropolitan Municipality Stray Animal Care and Rehabilitation Center for ovariohysterectomy and orchiectomy between 2015 and 2022. Small, white larval-like structures found in the peritoneum, mesenterium and omentum parts of the animals were placed in vials containing a 10 formalin solution. They were then transferred to the Laboratory of the Department of Parasitology of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of Hatay Mustafa Kemal University for examination. As a result of the parasitological examination, it was determined that these small structures were tetrathyridium, the second-stage larva of Mesocestoides spp. Tetrathyridium was found in 4 of 897 cats 4 0.44, 17 of 12 057 dogs 15, 2 0.14 and 21 of a total of 12 954 animals 19, 2 0.16 during the ovariohysterectomy and orchiectomy operations. This retrospective study investigating the presence of tetrathyridium in cats and dogs in Hatay province is the first study in Türkiye.

 Peritoneal tetrathyridiosis kedi ve köpeklerde genellikle asemptomatik seyretmesi nedeniyle çeşitli operasyonlarda veya nekropsilerde tesadüfen rastlanan ve nadir görülen paraziter bir hastalıktır. Ancak tetrathyridiumlar kedi ve köpeklerde, bazen kronik asitesli peritonitise ve hatta ölümcül sonuçlara neden olabilirler. Bu çalışmada, 2015-2022 yılları arasında ovariohisterektomi ve orşiektomi amacıyla Hatay Büyükşehir Belediyesi Sahipsiz Hayvan Bakım ve Rehabilitasyon Merkezine getirilen 897 kedi ve 12 057 köpekte tetrathyridiosis olgularının prevalansı araştırıldı. Hayvanların periton, mezenterium ve omentum kısımlarında rastlanan küçük, beyaz renkli larva benzeri yapılar 10luk formalin çözeltisi içeren şişelere konuldu. Daha sonra incelenmek üzere Hatay Mustafa Kemal Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Parazitoloji Ana Bilim Dalı Laboratuvarına nakledildi. Yapılan parazitolojik muayene sonucunda bu yapıların Mesocestoides spp.nin ikinci dönem larvası tetrathyridium oldukları tespit edildi. Ovariohisterektomi ve orşiektomi operasyonları esnasında 897 kedinin 4ünde 4 0.44, 12 057 köpeğin 17sinde 15, 2 0.14 toplamda da 12 954 hayvanın 21inde 19, 2 0.16 tetrathyridiumlara rastlandı. Hatay ilinde kedi ve köpeklerde tetrathyridium varlığının araştırıldığı bu retrospektif çalışma, Türkiyede ilk çalışma olma niteliğindedir.
