Abstract

Cysticercosis was found in one of 18 woodchucks imported from the United States and maintained in our laboratory for study of hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The lesions found in subcutaneous area, lungs and maxillary sinus were multiple cysts containing numerous cysticerci identified as Cysticercus longicollis, a larval form of Taenia crassiceps.
