Resumo
A dioctofimose é causada pelo Dioctophyme renale, um nematoide que geralmente afeta o rim direito dos carnívoros. Este trabalho teve como objetivo relatar um caso clínico de dioctofimose renal e ectópica abdominal desde o diagnóstico até o tratamento de um cão macho, sem raça definida, 9 meses de idade, atendido em uma clínica veterinária localizada na cidade de Monte Carmelo, Minas Gerais, sem até o momento, relatos do diagnóstico de dioctofimose. O animal foi levado ao ambulatório após observação de sangue na urina do animal. Após avaliação veterinária e exames hematológicos, bioquímicos, urinários e ultrassonográficos, o animal foi diagnosticado com dioctofimose. O tratamento baseou-se na laparotomia para nefrectomia do rim direito e remoção dos parasitas encontrados. Cinco dias após cirurgia, o paciente apresentou evolução adequada do reparo da ferida operatória, ausência de hematúria e melhora significativa do quadro clínico, sendo liberado para alta médica após 20 dias de reavaliação.
