The World Health Organization considers leishmaniasis to be one of the most important zoonotic diseases with approximately 350 million people in 98 countries at risk of contracting the disease. The leishmaniasis also remains a severe public health problem in Turkey. It is important to evaluate the prevalence of Canine leishmaniasis (CanL) for designing control policies. In the present study, we report for the first time the occurrence of Leishmania infection in dogs living in the Middle Black Sea Region of Turkey. For the diagnosis of the infection parasitological (direct microscopic examination of lymph nodes), serological (ELISA) and molecular (kDNA-PCR) methods were performed using blood samples obtained from 240 dogs. Sand flies were also collected using CDC miniature light traps from the same locations for testing Leishmania presence by kDNA-PCR. Only one (0.41%) dog out of 240 was found to be positive by both tests. Amastigotes of Leishmania spp. were detected in the same animal lymph node aspirate sample. A total of 18 sand flies were collected and no Leishmania was detected Phlebotomus spp. sample pool. Our results showed that CanL could have public health implications and future screening studies are needed in this region of Turkey

Dünya Sağlık Örgütü 98 ülkede, yaklaşık 350 milyon kişinin hastalığa yakalanma riski taşıdığı leishmaniasisi en önemli zoonozlardan birisi olarak görmektedir. Leishmaniasis aynı zamanda Türkiye’de de ciddi bir halk sağlığı problemidir. Hastalığın kontrol politikalarını oluşturabilmek için köpek leishmaniasisin yaygınlığının bilinmesi büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışma ile Orta Karadeniz Bölgesi’nde köpeklerde Leishmania enfeksiyonu ilk kez bildirildi. Enfeksiyonun tanısı için 240 köpekten alınan örnekler parazitolojik (lenf aspiratı), serolojik (ELISA) ve moleküler (kDNA-PCR) yöntemler kullanılarak incelendi. Aynı bölgelerden CDC (Centers for Disease Control) minyatür ışık tuzakları kullanılarak kum sinekleri yakalandı ve kDNA-PCR ile Leishmania varlığı yönünden incelendi. İncelenen 240 kan örneğinin sadece birinde (% 0.41) Leishmania cinsine karşı antikor ve Leishmania kDNA’sı tespit edildi. Aynı köpeğin lenf aspiratında Leishmania spp. amastigotlarına rastlandı. Bununla birlikte Phlebotomus spp. örnek havuzunda Leishmania kDNA’sı saptanmadı. Sonuçlar göz önüne alındığında köpek leishmaniasisin halk sağlığına etkileri olabileceği ve bu bölgede tarama çalışmalarına devam edilmesine ihtiyaç olduğu düşünülmüştür
