Abstract

Dermatofitosis adalah infeksi jamur superfisial yang umum pada kucing, terutama yang terpapar lingkungan luar ruangan. Studi kasus ini melaporkan seekor kucing domestik berusia 5 bulan bernama Simon, dengan berat 1,9 kg, yang memiliki kulit kemerahan dan bersisik, alopecia parsial, dan gips folikel di daerah kepala dan telinga. Kucing itu aktif, memiliki nafsu makan yang baik, dan tidak menunjukkan tanda-tanda pruritus. Simon dipelihara di lingkungan semi-luar ruangan dengan potensi kontak dengan kucing liar. Diagnosis didasarkan pada pemeriksaan fisik, uji lampu Wood, sitologi kesan pita perekat, dan kultur jamur. Evaluasi makroskopis dan mikroskopis dari isolat jamur menunjukkan bahwa Microsporum canis adalah agen penyebabnya. Pengobatan termasuk sampo antijamur topikal yang mengandung ekonazol nitrat (Sebazole) yang dioleskan setiap minggu dan itra-konazol sistemik dengan dosis 7,5 mg/kg berat badan sekali sehari selama dua minggu. Terapi suportif termasuk suplemen hati (Curcuma FCT) dan kulit (Coatex). Setelah dua minggu terapi, evaluasi fisik ulang menunjukkan resolusi eritema dan pengelupasan, dengan pertumbuhan kembali rambut yang terlihat di area yang sebelumnya alopesia.

Abstract

Canine diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic endocrine disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia and metabolic imbalance, frequently leading to secondary complications such as neuropathic weakness. Abrielle, an eleven-year-old female Siberian Husky, presented to the small animal clinic with hind limb weakness that had persisted for three months. The dog also showed clinical signs of polydipsia, polyuria, and weight loss, despite an increased appetite. The owner reported that the dog’s daily diet consisted mainly of white rice with very little protein. Laboratory examination revealed hyperglycemia (423 mg/dL), elevated fructosamine levels (340 µmol/L), and glucose-positive dark brown urine. Based on these findings, the dog was diagnosed with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Treatment with insulin was prescribed twice daily, and acupuncture therapy was recommended to support recovery and address hind limb weakness. Abrielle underwent acupuncture twice a week using electroacupuncture, dry needles, and aqua acupuncture. After four sessions, noticeable improvement in mobility was observed, and after three months, the dog’s body weight increased from 38.5 lbs to 48.5 lbs, with a more active and friendly demeanor.
