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.3 p.application/pdfeng(c) Springer Verlag, 2018Malalties parasitàriesMosquitsParasitic diseasesMosquitoesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article2019-02-14info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
