Revisión Baldi, Mario Piche, Martha Romero, Mario Hutter, Sabine Elisabeth Montenegro, Víctor Walzer, Chris Mapaches Baylisascaris procyonis Salud Pública Salud Animal Larva migrans Raccoons Baylisascaris procyonis Public Heath Animal Health Larva migrans The zoonotic helminth Baylisacaris procyonis is a parasite in urban raccoons (Procyon lotor) of increasing public health concern. A new report alerts about the presence of these roundworms in urban raccoon populations in Costa Rica stressing the need to understand the parasite, its life cycle and preventive measures to avoid transmission to humans and pets. This is a brief review of the most remarkable features of this parasite and its negative effects on animal and public health. Additionally, emphasis is given on the best and most appropriate etiologic diagnostic methods in domestic animals, as well as treatment and prevention in dogs. This article is meant to raise awareness in public and animal health caretakers to consider Bayliascaris procyonis as differential diagnosis for larva migrans in Costa Rica. El ascaridio Baylisascaris procyonis es un agente parasitario de importancia para la salud pública, siendo su huésped definitivo el mapache común (Procyon lotor). Un nuevo informe alerta sobre la presencia de estas lombrices en poblaciones de mapaches en la zona urbana de Costa Rica, y hace énfasis en la necesidad de conocer más sobre este parásito, su ciclo de vida y cómo prevenir su transmisión en humanos y animales domésticos. Esta comunicación es una breve revisión sobre los aspectos más importantes de este nematodo y sus efectos negativos en la salud animal y pública. Además, se hace hincapié en los mejores métodos de diagnóstico etiológico y los más apropiados para animales domésticos, así como el tratamiento y la prevención en perros. El presente artículo pretende formar conciencia en los trabajadores de la salud pública y animal sobre la necesidad de tomar el Bayliascaris procyonis dentro de su diagnóstico diferencial de larvas migrantes en Costa Rica.
