ACEVEDO T, Sandra P; RAMIREZ L, Mauricio e RESTREPO R, Luis G. Uveitis and glaucoma associated with Hepatozoon canis infection: a case report. Rev Colom Cienc Pecua [online]. 2010, vol.23, n.4, pp.485-491. ISSN 0120-0690.
We report the case of a five years old German Shepherd dog, who presented anterior uveitis in his left eye which then led him to glaucoma and corneal ulcer. Clinical examination found a patient with low body condition, muscle weakness, dull and brittle coat, and unspecific symptomatology. During both the cell blood count (CBC) and blood smears, gamonts of Hepatozoon canis were found in blood and aqueous humor. Diagnosis, treatment and progress are reported.
