Abstract

The paper describes a case of pulmonary dirofilariasis as a solitary nummular tumor likely caused by D. (Nochtiella) repens in a woman residing in Russia. It discusses the etiological role of D. (Nochtiella) repens in all cases of human dirofilariasis, including pulmonary dirofilariasis in Russia's residents. The role of D. immitis as a veterinary problem and prospects for studying endosymbiotic Wolbachia bacteria are considered. The topicality of dirofilariasis as imminent infection and problems in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of this invasion are shown.
