摘要：

Dirofilaria repens is the main causative agent of human and canine dirofilariosis. This form of zoonotic parasitosis usually manifests with an involvement of the skin or the eye. Human dirofilariosis is considered as an emerging infectious disease. We report the first case of proven microfilariemic dirofilariosis in peripheral blood in Germany.
