RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: In humans, basaloid follicular hamartomas are benign follicular tumours, that can be solitary or multiple, in which case they show autosomal dominant inheritance. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES: This study describes clinical and histopathological findings observed in a young cat, which could be consistent with basaloid follicular hamartomas. CASE DESCRIPTION: Multiple follicular abnormalities, consistent with cutaneous diffuse basaloid follicular hamartomas, were observed in skin samples from a one-year old neutered domestic short hair cat. Clinical signs were diffuse symmetrical alopecia with exaggerated skin markings (ventral abdomen, thorax and medial aspects of the limbs) and intense follicular-centred thickening (face and feet). Microscopic lesions were characterised by multiple proliferative follicular abnormalities in all samples. The epidermis showed a very irregular surface with the follicles filled with variably pigmented keratin. The epithelial walls of the follicles had multiple small hyperplastic basaloid cells foci. In the superficial dermis under the epidermis and around the follicles, fibroblastic spindle-shaped mesenchymal cells with a homogeneous moderate density were present in the collagenous connective tissue. The interfollicular epidermis was also abnormal with multiple small proliferating trichoblastic foci originating from the basal layer. RNAscope testing for feline papillomavirus was negative. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This case report provides the first evidence of clinical and histopathological findings of multiple follicular abnormalities, consistent with cutaneous diffuse basaloid follicular hamartomas in a cat.


De multiples anomalies folliculaires, compatibles avec des hamartomes folliculaires basaloïdes diffus cutanés, ont été observées dans des échantillons de peau d'un chat domestique à poils courts castré âgé d'un an. Les signes cliniques étaient une alopécie diffuse symétrique avec des marques cutanées exagérées (abdomen ventral, thorax et face médiale des membres) et un épaississement folliculaire intense (face et pieds).


Múltiplas anormalidades foliculares, consistentes com hamartomas cutâneos foliculares basaloides difusos, foram observadas em amostras de pele de um gato doméstico de pelo curto castrado de um ano de idade. Os sinais clínicos foram alopecia simétrica difusa com marcações cutâneas exuberantes (abdômen, tórax e aspecto medial dos membros) e espessamento folicular central intenso (face e patas).

RESUMEN

Eosinophilic dermatitis was observed in skin samples from Jersey cows, sampled in mid-October in south-west France. The inflammatory response was considered to be the result of Trombiculidae bites. Clinical signs were assumed to be due partly to self-trauma and included patchy alopecia with crusted papules; lesions were observed on the jaws, dewlap, perineum and distal limbs. Identified parasites were larvae of Leptotrombidium spp. The lesions had completely self-resolved by December.


La dermatite éosinophilique a été observée dans des échantillons cutanés prélevés sur des vaches Jersey à la mi-octobre dans le sud-est de la France. La réponse inflammatoire a été considérée comme résultant de piqures de Trombiculidae. Les signes cliniques ont été considérés comme étant en partie dus à des auto-traumatismes et comprenaient une alopécie en patch avec papules croûteuses ; les lésions ont été observées sur les mâchoires, les fanons, le périnée et les extrémités distales des membres. Les parasites identifiés étaient des larves de Leptotrombidium spp. Les lésions se sont résolues en totalité spontanément en décembre.


Se observó dermatitis eosinofílica en muestras de piel de vacas Jersey, muestreadas a mediados de octubre en el suroeste de Francia. Se consideró que la respuesta inflamatoria era el resultado de las picaduras de Trombiculidae. Se asumió que los signos clínicos se debían en parte al autotraumatismo e incluían alopecia en parches con pápulas costrosas; se observaron lesiones en mandíbulas, papada, perineo y extremidades distales. Los parásitos identificados fueron larvas de Leptotrombidium spp. Las lesiones se habían resuelto completamente en diciembre.


Observou-se dermatite eosinofílica em amostras de pele de vacas Jersey, coletadas no meio de outubro no sudoeste da França. A resposta inflamatória foi considerada resultante de picadas de trombiculídeos. Os sinais clínicos foram considerados como sendo causados parcialmente por auto-traumatismo e incluíram alopécia focal com pápulas crostosas; as lesões foram observadas nas mandíbulas, barbela, períneo e região distal dos membros.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Nasal hyperkeratosis may cause discomfort in dogs by predisposing them to fissures and secondary bacterial infection. Approaches to treatment have been described anecdotally; the effectiveness of such therapies remains unproven. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES: To investigate the efficacy of a balm containing essential oils and essential fatty acids in dogs with idiopathic nasal hyperkeratosis. ANIMALS: Client-owned dogs with noncomplicated nasal hyperkeratosis. METHODS: The study was conducted as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial with parallel group design and two month follow-up period. Dogs received daily topical application of a commercial balm product (group DBB) or placebo (aqueous gelling agent with preservatives, group PB). The main outcome variables were lichenification, dryness, suppleness and extent of lesions. Subjective owner satisfaction index score was a secondary variable. Evaluation was performed on days (D)0, 30 and 60. Response to treatment was assessed as the change from baseline to each examination day for each criterion. RESULTS: Forty eight dogs, principally French (26 of 48) and English (seven of 48) bulldogs, were included and 39 completed the study. No major adverse events were reported. On D60, changes from baseline for lichenification, lesion extent, suppleness and total score were -31.2%, -18.3%, -72.8% and -36.8% in group DBB (23 dogs) and -11.9%, 2.3%, -42.1% and -14% in group PB (16 dogs), respectively. The total score was significantly improved on D60 in group DBB compared to PB (Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney U-test, P = 0.0016). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: The balm proved safe and helpful in managing canine idiopathic noncomplicated nasal hyperkeratosis.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Computed tomography (CT) is considered to be the reference method to evaluate middle ear structures. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the presence and severity of CT changes in the middle ear and establish if any specific clinical presentations are associated with otitis media. ANIMALS: Medical records of animals referred for CT with history and clinical signs consistent with middle ear disease. METHODS: Retrospective evaluation of CT examinations of tympanic bullae performed over a six year period. Medical records were reviewed for signalment, clinical signs and cytological evaluation of the external ear canal. Dogs were divided into three clinical groups: chronic otitis externa (Group 1), peripheral vestibular disorder (Group 2) and other clinical presentations (Group 3). RESULTS: Group 1 - Of 214 ears, 87 (40.7%) had CT abnormalities: 38 of 87 (17.7%) had material-filled bullae, 42 of 87 (19.6%) had thickened bullae walls and seven of 87 (3.2%) had lysis of the bulla. Abnormalities were significantly more frequent in dogs with suppurative otitis than in erythemato-ceruminous otitis (57% and 23%, respectively; P = 0.003). Proliferative otitis, particularly in French bulldogs, was associated with severe otitis media. Group 2 - Of the 106 ears, 91 (85.8%) had normal tympanic bullae. Group 3 - Of the 26 ears from deaf dogs, 17 had filled bullae; all nine affected dogs were Cavalier King Charles spaniels. All dogs with Claude Bernard Horner syndrome or head tilt had normal tympanic bullae. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: CT is useful for canine chronic otitis externa, particularly in suppurative or proliferative otitis, even in the absence of associated neurological signs.

RESUMEN

Objectives Few data are available concerning therapeutic aspects of feline trombiculiasis. This study evaluated the efficacy of a 10% w/v fipronil-based spot-on solution in 15 cats with natural Neotrombicula species infestation. Methods Ten cats received 1 drop per affected site on day (D)0 and D14, with the rest of the 0.5 ml pipette applied on the skin between the shoulders. Five cats served as non-treated controls. Parasite score (0 = absent; 3 = severe, >10 parasites/zone) was assessed on D0, D14 and D28 on all animals. Skin lesions (SCORing Feline Allergic Dermatitis lesion severity scale [SCORFAD]) and investigator pruritus scale (IPS; 0 = cat comfortable, grooming like any normal cat; 4 = cat uncomfortable, pruritic all the time) were assessed on treated cats on the same days. Global assessment of efficacy, tolerance and ease of use (GAS; 1 = very poor; 5 = excellent) was assessed on D28. Results All the cats completed the study. Parasite scores of the control cats were maintained throughout the trial (mean ± SD: D0 4 ± 0.7, D14 3.2 ± 1.1 and D28 3.2 ± 0.4). In treated cats, SCORFAD (D0 3.2 ± 5.4, D14 1.1 ± 2.1 [ P <0.002] and D28 0.5 ± 1.3 [ P <0.002]), parasite (D0 3.9 ± 1.3, D14 1.2 ± 0.8 [ P <0.005] and D28 0.4 ± 0.5 [ P <0.005]) and IPS (D0 1 ± 1.2, D14 0.5 ± 1.1 [ P <0.05] and D28 0.3 ± 0.7 [ P <0.05]) scores significantly decreased throughout the trial. On D28, the GAS was 4.2 ± 0.9. There were no adverse effects from treatment. Conclusions and relevance The 10% w/v fipronil preparation appeared to be effective, safe and practical in the treatment of localised Neotrombicula species infestation in these cats.
