Аннотация
An-eighteen months (one and half years) old heifer was presented with a progressive loss of weight leading to cachexia and was attended to by a team of doctors from the ambulatory clinic of the School of Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine, University of Rwanda. Clinical examination revealed scleroderma of both sides of the neck and pinpoint cysts in the sclera and conjunctiva as well as corneal opacity of the left eye. Histological examination of skin biopsy showed a mononuclear dermatitis with several cysts of 100-300 μm filled up with bradyzoites in the subcutis and dermis. These lesions are consistent with bovine besnoitiosis, a disease caused by Besnoitia besnoiti in cattle. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first confirmed case of bovine besnoitiosis in Rwanda.
