Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 6-year-old, neutered female, Cocker spaniel presented with severe abdominal erythema and crusts. These conditions developed 1 month ago. This patient had a history of using humectant spray for several months. Irritant contact dermatitis was diagnosed by history, clinical signs, laboratory and histopathologic examinations (H-E stain). Complete blood count and serum chemistry showed no remarkable findings. Histopathologic examination of skin samples revealed parakeratosis accompanied by acanthosis of the dermis and mild perivascular inflammations of the superficial dermis. Clinical signs were improved after avoidance of suspected offending substance.
