Two cases of subcutaneous dirofilariasis in Barcelona, Spain

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
In recent years, the number of reported cases of human
                dirofilariasis in Europe has increased and the circulation of
                Dirofilaria spp. in mosquitoes in several European countries has
                been proven. We report here two likely autochthonous cases of
                subcutaneous human dirofilariasis from Barcelona, Spain, caused
                by Dirofilaria repens. The potential for an increase in human
                infection is high given the number of cases published recently
                and the ability of vectors to spread through the Mediterranean
                basin.
