Abstract
|
|
|
|
A two-year-old, castrated male Jindo dog presented with a three-week history of non-pruritic alopecia and scales on dorsum. The dermatologic lesions were progressive and did not respond to antibiotics and treatment for ectoparasite. Silver-white scales were adhered to the hair shafts and a follicular cast was marked on a trichogram. Findings on histopathologic examination of the skin lesions were consistent with sebaceous adenitis. Treatment with systemic cyclosporine and topical shampoo treatment was recommended for long term management. This case report is the first to describe a sebaceous adenitis in our country and suggests combination treatment approaches to long term management of this disease.
