Abstract
El propósito de Esta investigación fue el de determinar la prevalencia de Cysticercus tenuicollis e identificar las variables que pueden influir para que la enfermedad parasitaria se presente en el ganado ovino. En el estudio se cuantifico una población total de 362 animales los cuales fueron examinados durante el proceso de faenamiento, un total de 133 ovinos fueron positivos a la presencia del cisticerco del modo que se obtuvo una frecuencia de periodo del 37% en la población. En la investigación se determinó que no existe dependencia de la raza, sexo y procedencia de los animales para la presentación del parásito en su interior. Se identificó la distribución del parásito en la cavidad abdominal de los ovinos faenados determinando que el epiplón es la estructura anatómica mayormente afectada por la presencia del C. tenuicollis, entre los órganos afectados se encuentran: hígado, mesenterio y peritoneo con un diámetro promedio por cisticerco de entre 2.5 a 3.7 cm dependiendo del órgano o estructura infestada. Mediante el análisis estadístico Chi² se determinó que el parásito C. tenuicollis afecta a todos y cada uno de los animales sin tener diferencia de razas, sexo y procedencia puesto que la probabilidad de ocurrencia en las tres variables propuestas es superior a la establecida y el parásito no difiere con ninguna de las categorías antes descritas.
The purpose of this research was to determine the prevalence of Cysticercus tenuicollis and to identify the variables that may influence parasitic disease in sheep. The study quantified a total population of 362 animals which were examined during the slaughter process, a total of 133 sheep were positive to the presence of the cysticercus so that a period frequency of 37% was obtained in the population. In the investigation it was determined that there is no dependence of the race, sex and origin of the animals for the presentation of the parasite inside. The distribution of the parasite was identified in the abdominal cavity of sheep slaughtered, determining that the omentum is the anatomical structure most affected by the presence of C. tenuicollis, among the affected organs are: liver, mesentery and peritoneum with an average diameter by cysticercus between 2.5 and 3.7 cm depending on the organ or structure infested. Statistical analysis Chi2 determined that the parasite C. tenuicollis affects each and every one of the animals without differences of races, sex and origin since the probability of occurrence in the three variables proposed is higher than that established and the parasite does not differs with any of the categories described above.
