Little is known about the influence of parasitic co-infections on the course and diagnosis of tuberculosis in animals. The best known co-infection in cattle is Fasciola hepatica and Mycobacterium bovis. The aim of this study was to review the most recent literature regarding tuberculosis and parasite co-infection in ungulates and relate the results to European bison. Our findings indicate that any comprehensive diagnosis of BTB should include parasitological monitoring, and the possible impact of such invasions on cellular response-based tuberculosis tests should be taken into account. The diagnosis of BTB is complex, as is its pathogenesis, and parasitic infestations can have a significant impact on both. This should be taken into account during further research and monitoring of tuberculosis in European bison.}, type={Article}, title={A review of tuberculosis and parasitic disease co-infection in ungulates, with regard to the potential threat to European bison ( Bison bonasus)}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/126671/PDF-MASTER/18%20_%20Galazka.pdf}, doi={10.24425/pjvs.2023.145018}, keywords={bovine tuberculosis, co-infection, Fasciola hepatica, helminths, Mycobacterium bovis, Mycobacterium caprae, parasites}, }
