Abstract

Cardiovascular disease has been recorded in 19 free-living male red deer killed on the island of Rhum off the west coast of Scotland. The aortic lesions varied from lipid streaking of the intima to massive calcium deposits in the media. Sarcocysts were numerous in the cardiac musculature which also showed macrophage infiltrations and changes in the coronary arteris. All the lungs examined showed evidence of lungworm disease.
