[Dirofilaria repens-infection in a dog in central Germany without any history of travel].

A mixed breed dog was presented with dyspnoea and fever. In the purulent thorax aspirate, a nematode larva was found during the cytological examination. Subsequent diagnostic tests revealed an infection with Dirofilaria repens, which was probably acquired autochthonously in central Germany. Moxidectin was administered every 4 weeks for 6 months and shown to be effective as indicated by subsequent blood examinations. This case report shows that infection with Dirofilaria repens is possible in Germany and can be treated successfully.
