Discharge had been present for 2 months, with progression from purulent to hemorrhagic discharge after empiric treatment by the primary veterinarian 6 weeks prior to referral. The dog had a history of seizures starting at 1 year of age that were controlled with phenobarbital. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the head yielded diagnoses of a left-sided meningoencephalocele with extension of the olfactory bulb into the caudal nasal passage and destructive rhinitis and frontal sinusitis consistent with aspergillosis. Rhinoscopy was performed to collect diagnostic samples, debride fungal plaques, and guide clotrimazole cream application. Biopsies revealed suppurative rhinitis with abundant aspergillosis, with Aspergillus sp. confirmed on fungal culture. Postoperatively, the patient was treated with a short course of oral posaconazole. Stertorous breathing was noted 4 months following treatment. Recheck sinoscopy and rhinoscopy revealed one fungal plaque in the left nasal cavity and small, hyperemic turbinates. Treatment was repeated, resulting in resolution of clinical signs. Repeat rhinoscopy 1 month later had no evidence of residual disease. Seizures recurred 3 years after the second treatment and were medically managed by the primary care veterinarian. This case report describes a rare case of nasal aspergillosis complicated by a meningoencephalocele. Despite the large cribriform plate defect resulting in exposure of the meninges and olfactory bulb, repeated debridement and topical antifungal treatment were well tolerated by this patient. There was no recurrence in signs for 3 years, after which the dog was lost to follow-up.","PeriodicalId":37339,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine","volume":"2025 ","pages":"6620660"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12041618/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144052945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Animals Studied: One 20-year-old American Quarter Horse gelding and one 11-year-old pony mare were studied. Results: The presenting clinical signs, surgical technique, and postoperative results for two cases of iris hypoplasia treated with diode laser are described. Immediate postoperative complications-postoperative ocular hypertension (POH), corneal edema, and epithelial bullae-were possible anticipated effects but were controlled with topical medications in the first case. Following treatment, endothelial contact of the iris was eliminated, and a functional pupil was established in the first case. Anterior synechia occurred long-term but did not lead to pupil obstruction. Left untreated, the iris hypoplasia in the right eye progressed to a degree like that seen upon initial presentation in the left eye. In the second case, the area of the distended, hypoplastic iris was reduced, and the pupil remained functional. Conclusions: Diode laser ablation of hypoplastic iridal tissue was effective at eliminating anterior synechia in both cases presented here. The better functional results in Case 2 suggest that early intervention may result in more favorable outcomes.","PeriodicalId":37339,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine","volume":"2025 ","pages":"4021047"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11957872/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143755016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Animal Studied: A 3-year-old, female-spayed, Bernese Mountain Dog with a history of bilateral idiopathic anterior uveitis developed iris depigmentation, leukotrichia, and skin depigmentation. Procedures: The initial diagnostic evaluation for uveitis was unremarkable, including general bloodwork, urinalysis, infectious disease testing, thoracic radiographs, and abdominal ultrasound. After the development of dermatologic disease, uveodermatologic syndrome was clinically suspected and cutaneous biopsy specimens were collected for histopathology. Results: Cutaneous histopathology was consistent with vitiligo. Progressive and diffuse skin and hair depigmentation occurred over several years, but the dog's anterior uveitis remained well controlled on relatively minimal topical anti-inflammatory medications. No posterior segment ocular lesions developed, and the dog remained visual. Conclusions and Clinical Relevance: This report indicates that anterior uveitis and uveal depigmentation can develop in dogs associated with vitiligo. The presence of bilateral uveitis and uveal depigmentation, concurrent with skin and hair depigmentation, is often considered suggestive of uveodermatologic syndrome in a dog. This report illustrates the importance of cutaneous histopathology to confirm a clinical suspicion even in the most suggestive of clinical presentations.","PeriodicalId":37339,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine","volume":"2025 ","pages":"6586766"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11745554/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143013232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These lesions should be protected from infection using a product that has a low risk of reactivity. Medical-grade honey (MGH) exerts antimicrobial and wound-healing effects while posing a low risk of exacerbating TEN. In this case report, we are the first to describe the use of MGH for wound management in two feline TEN patients. Case 1 involved a 1-year-old female British shorthair cat, while Case 2 featured a 1-year-old female mixed-breed cat. Both patients presented to the hospital with various symptoms, including fever, tongue lesions, and lesions in the abdominal area following ovariohysterectomy surgery. TEN was confirmed via histopathological examination. The suspected cause of TEN in both cases was the iodine present in the surgical scrub. Tongue lesions were addressed with a liquid diet, and all xenobiotics were immediately withdrawn as a precaution. MGH products supplemented with vitamins were applied to the abdominal wounds following a wound lavage with Ringer's lactate. Daily dressing changes were performed without discomfort, pain, or any adverse reactions. In both cases, debridement became evident after just 1 day, and the patients fully recovered after 12 days of MGH therapy. This case report demonstrates for the first time the successful use of supplemented MGH for wound management in veterinary patients with TEN. The patients did not have any adverse reactions to the treatment, while MGH dressings provided antimicrobial protection and wound-healing effects. Furthermore, these cases highlight the importance of rapid diagnosis and immediate drug withdrawal to increase the survival rate. Overall, supplemented MGH is a safe and effective method to treat TEN-related lesions in feline patients.","PeriodicalId":37339,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine","volume":"2024 ","pages":"2415811"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11469928/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142476739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
