Resumo
Veterinary dermatology represents approximately 30% of the casuistry in the clinic of small animals, with important economic impact in the area, according to researches, dermatological cases present a huge prevalence in small animals, being the most common reason to be treated by veterinarians to avoid possible zoonoses. The present study aimed to analyze the incidence of dermatological affections and to characterize animals admitted to the consultation that attended on a veterinary clinic located in the city of Jaguaribe-CE. The study was quantitatively qualitative. The data were collected from January to December in the Veterinary Clinic Jaguaribana (CVJ), in the State of Ceará, on the small animal care sector, in 2017, based on the evaluation of the clinical records available on the care of dermatopathic dogs and cats and through semi-structured interviews with the responsible veterinarian. The results showed that in the year 2017 89 animals were treated, 27 (30.4%) cats and 62 (69.6%) dogs. Among the cats treated, 17 (63%) had some form of dermatitis and 10 (37%) had no dermatitis problems. Among the dogs treated, 48 (73%) had a dermatitis problem and 14 (27%) had no dermatitis problems. Different lesions have been reported in the clinical records of companion animals. The correct diagnosis of dermatopathies is confusing, due to the similarity of clinical signs and lack of resources, and many diseases with zoonotic potential may go unnoticed.(AU)
