  "abstract": "<p>The objective of this study was to evaluate histologically the temporal influx of immune cells into hepatic granulomas in domestic rabbits infected with&nbsp;<em>Taenia pisiformis</em>&nbsp;eggs at 28, 77 and 90 days post-infection (dpi). Our study has focused on the histological description of lesions in the liver by&nbsp;<em>T. pisiformis</em>, quantification of macrophages, lymphocytes, and eosinophils and measured of the total area of granulomas. Histological differences among days post-infection were found, granulomas area was higher at 77 and 90 dpi compared to 28 dpi. Total lymphocytes increased in relation to the time post-infection. Macrophages were the most numerous cells at 28 and 77 dpi (109.49&plusmn;5.2 and 56.12&plusmn;3.69, respectively), though they diminished about 50% at 77 dpi. Eosinophils were scarce and their number decreased with the progress of time post-infection. Foamy macrophages were observed, which had not previously been referred for cestodiasis. It is concluded that the histological characteristics of liver granulomas induced by infection with&nbsp;<em>T. pisiformis</em> in rabbits and the influx of immune cells changed at different periods post-infection. This information is fundamental to know more deeply the histological organization of rabbit granulomas in relation to the influx of immune cells in experimental post-infection periods.</p>",
