[Outbreak of feline sporotrichosis in the metropolitan area of Recife.] Surto de esporotricose felina na região metropolitana do Recife. Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira 38(9):1767-1771. Departamento de Medicina Veterinária, Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco, Rua Dom Manuel de Medeiros s/n, Dois Irmãos, Recife, PE 52171-900, Brazil. E-mail: grasivet@hotmail.com Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis caused by a dimorphic fungus from Sporothrix schenckii complex, which affects various species, especially feline, able to cause local, disseminated or systemic impairment. We aimed to report the occurrence of an outbreak of feline sporotrichosis in the Metropolitan Region of Recife. Swabs of skin ulcers in cats treated in the Veterinary Hospital of the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco and in particular veterinary establishments were collected. Diagnosis was made by cytological examination and fungal culture. From 115 suspicious cases, 59 cases were confirmed, unprecedented results in the state of Pernambuco. These registered cases of feline sporotrichosis have demonstrated clinical and epidemiological characteristics similar to those occurring in other regions of the country, characterized as a quick-spreading disease, of difficult treatment, which affects predominantly semi-domiciled young males in reproductive age.

E-mail: grasivet@hotmail.com A esporotricose é uma micose subcutânea, causada por um fungo dimórfico do complexo Sporothrix schenckii que acomete várias espécies, especialmente a felina, causando comprometimento local, disseminado ou sistêmico. Objetivou-se relatar a ocorrência de um surto de esporotricose felina na Região Metropolitana do Recife. Foram coletados suabes de úlceras cutâneas de felinos atendidos no Hospital Veterinário da Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco e em Clínicas Veterinárias particulares. O diagnóstico foi realizado por meio de exame citológico e cultura fúngica. Dos 115 casos suspeitos, 59 casos foram confirmados, número nunca registrado anteriormente no estado de Pernambuco. Os casos de esporotricose felina registrados têm demonstrado aspectos clínicos e epidemiológicos semelhantes aos ocorridos em outras regiões do país, caracterizando-se como uma doença predominantemente de machos jovens em idade reprodutiva e semi-domiciliados, de difícil tratamento e de rápida disseminação.


#2 - Retrospective study on clinical management of indolent ulcers in Boxer dogs, 31(10):910-915

Abstract in English:

ABSTRACT.- Hvenegaard A.P., Vieira J.E., Leandro D.C., Góes A.C., Safatle A.M.V. & Barros P.S.M. 2011. Retrospective study on clinical management of indolent ulcers in Boxer dogs. Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira 31(10):910-915. Departamento de Cirurgia, Faculdade de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, Universidade de São Paulo, Av. Prof. Dr. Orlando Marques de Paiva 87, São Paulo, SP 05508-270, Brazil. E-mail: ana6113@hotmail.com Indolent ulcers are superficial corneal ulcers secondary to several changes on the corneal surface. They are frequently observed in middle-aged Boxer dogs, cause pain of acute onset and requires appropriate treatment. Aiming to evaluate the efficacy of clinical managements on the rate of healing of indolent ulcers, a retrospective study was conducted (1997-2008). Results demonstrated that proteinase inhibitors were the most often prescribed medication, and its administration did not interfere on the healing rate, as well as observed in dogs that received 1% atropine, antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs. Healing was delayed in dogs administered orally with vitamin C, but the healing process was faster on those dogs that went through corneal debridement/cauterization. In conclusion, to know the various types of treatments seems to be fundamental for the rapid resolution of the disease. It is suggested that debridement/cauterization, administration of proteinase inhibitor eye drops, prophylactic topical antibiotics and oral vitamin C, should be considered as an effective clinical management for indolent ulcers in Boxer dogs.

E-mail: ana6113@hotmail.com Úlceras indolentes são úlceras corneais superficiais e espontâneas, que apresentam curso prolongado e que tendem a recidivar. Comumente observadas em cães de meia idade da raça Boxer, provoca dor de início agudo e necessita de tratamento específico, já que este, quando não realizado corretamente, pode prolongar o curso da lesão por semanas a meses. Com o objetivo de avaliar a eficácia dos tratamentos clínicos quanto à rapidez na resolução do quadro, realizou-se estudo retrospectivo (1997 a 2008). Observou-se que os inibidores das proteinases foram as medicações mais frequentemente prescritas e que sua administração não interferiu no tempo de cicatrização corneal, o que também foi observado nos casos em que se administrou antibióticos e antinflamatórios tópicos e sistêmicos e/ou atropina 1%. A administração de vitamina C retardou, de maneira estatisticamente significante, o tempo de cicatrização. Por outro lado, a realização do debridamento/cauterização corneal acelerou, significativamente, o processo. Conhecer os diversos tipos de tratamentos parece ser fundamental no sucesso e rapidez da resolução da doença. Os autores sugerem que a realização do debridamento/cauterização corneal, administração de inibidores das proteinases e antibióticos tópicos, associados à vitamina C por via oral, seja considerado um tratamento clínico efetivo na rápida resolução da doença.


#3 - Gastric ulcers in pigs affected with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome, p.601-605

Abstract in English:

ABSTRACT.- Corrêa A.M.R., Zlotowski P., Barcellos D.E.S.N., Cruz C.E.F. & Driemeier D. 2008. Gastric ulcers in pigs affected with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome. Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira 28(12):601-605. Departamento de Patologia Clínica Veterinária, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Av. Bento Gonçalves 9090, Porto Alegre, RS 91540-000, Brazil. E-mail: davetpat@ufrgs.br Samples of gastric lymph nodes and the stomachs from 24 pigs selected from herds affected by postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and sudden death associated with gastric ulcers were studied. Pigs were selected on the basis of unthriftiness, decreased feed intake, and wasting. The stomachs were opened, inverted, and classified into 0-3 score according the severity of the gross lesions present in pars oesophagica (non-glandulargastric mucosa). Selected samples were processed for paraffin embedding and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Immunohistochemistry using anti-PCV2 (porcine circovírus type 2) antibody, anti-Helicobacter pylori antibody and a wide-spectrum anti-cytokeratin antibody was performed. Gross changes in pars oesophagea were classified according to the severity of lesions as score 3, 2, and 1 in 8, 6, 5 stomachs respectivelly. Microscopically, hyperplastic lymphoid follicles, lymphohistiocytic inflammatory infiltrates and focci of necrosis in the gastric mucosa were common findings. Large amounts of PCV2 antigen were observed in the cytoplasm and nuclei from intralesional cells and debris from the gastric glandular mucosal zone; however, in the fundus, anti-PCV2 immunostaining was restricted to the surface mucosal cells and foveolar compartment. All gastric lymph nodes were positive for PCV2 antigen. Anti-H. pylori immunostaining was seen in eleven cases, mainly in the antrum, on the mucosal surface and foveolar compartment. The association of the anti-PCV2 immunostaining with the glandular mucus-producing cells suggests a role for PCV2 as an additional factor for the swine ulcer development.
