ulcerative keratitis in a dog.

This manuscript describes a previously unreported clinical case of serovar associated with ulcerative keratitis in a dog. Local immunosuppression of the corneal surface likely contributed to this opportunistic infection. Antimicrobial therapy with topical ofloxacin, tobramycin, and systemic enrofloxacin was successful in resolving the infection.

Prevalence of ocular lesions in cats newly diagnosed with histoplasmosis: 55 cases (2015-2022).

Objective: To describe the prevalence of ocular lesions in cats with newly diagnosed histoplasmosis.

Animals: 55 client-owned domestic cats.

Procedures: As part of this prospective case series, cats diagnosed with histoplasmosis between the years 2015 and 2020 underwent complete ophthalmic examinations by a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist prior to the initiation of antifungal treatment.

Disseminated histoplasmosis with ocular adnexal involvement in seven cats.

Objective: To describe the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of disseminated histoplasmosis with conjunctival and/or nictitating membrane involvement in cats.

Procedure: Medical records from seven cats with naturally acquired disseminated histoplasmosis and conjunctival and/or nictitating membrane lesions were reviewed for signalment, clinical findings, diagnostic results, treatment, and outcome.

Results: Breeds included domestic shorthair (n = 5), Maine Coon (n = 1), and Siamese mix (n = 1) with four spayed females and three castrated males.
