Brucella canis in Medellín (Colombia), a current problem

Canine brucellosis has impact on kennels and worldwide public health, generating economic losses for breeders caused by infertility and abortions, and potentiating the risk of zoonotic transmission by pets and workers. In Colombia, little is known about the frequency of the disease and there are no regulations for control or prevention of the illness in animals or humans. At the Universidad de Antioquia in the “Syngamia” Laboratory the diagnosis is offered since 2005, with the agglutination probe with 2β-mercaptoetanol and hemoculture for confirmation of the positives samples. Taking into account the results obtained in the lab, the frequency of seropositivity is 11%; in the region; when the histories were analyzed it was found that breeders and pet owners do not use the veterinary service, and those that attend the clinic received a diversity of criteria about what to do when animals are positive. The objective of this study was to show the results of three years casuistic in our lab and to propose a protocol for control of the illness based on our experience and laws of other countries legislation.

La brucelosis canina tiene impacto en la producción canina y en la salud pública, a nivel mundial, ya que genera pérdidas económicas a los criadores por infertilidad y por abortos, y existe el riesgo de transmisión zoonótica a los trabajadores y a los propietarios de mascotas. En Colombia, se conoce muy poco acerca de la frecuencia de presentación de la enfermedad, además, no existen leyes sanitarias que la regulen. En el laboratorio Syngamia de la Universidad de Antioquia, se ofrece el diagnóstico desde 2005, con la prueba tamiz de aglutinación rápida, en placa con 2β-mercaptoetanol y hemocultivo confirmatorio. A partir de los resultados obtenidos de los pacientes remitidos a este laboratorio, se halló una frecuencia de presentación del 11%; de seropositividad, en el ámbito regional. Al analizar las historias clínicas, se encontró, por una parte, que los propietarios consultan muy poco al Médico Veterinario, y aquellos que consultan encuentran una diversidad de criterios sobre las acciones a seguir, cuando el criadero o la mascota resultan positivos a la enfermedad. El objetivo de este estudio es mostrar la casuística de tres años de servicio diagnóstico y las aproximaciones que se propusieron para el posible control de la enfermedad.
