Abstract
Two approximately 6-month-old guinea pigs were admitted to the Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Veterinary (DIMFV), University of Ankara because of lethargy of several weeks’ duration, anorexia, bilateral allopecia, and itching. Candida albicans, was isolated from the skin lesions. Both patients were treated with ketoconazole (10 mg/kg PO every 12 h) and topical clotrimazole. The female guinea pig died during the seventh day of the treatment period
Yaklaşık 6 aylık iki kobay haftalardır süren letarji, iştahsızlık, çift taraflı tüy dökülmesi ve kaşıntı şikayetiyle Ankara Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi İç Hastalıkları Anabilim dalına getirildi. Derideki yaralardan yapılan izolasyonda Candida albicans tespit edildi. Her iki kobaya tedavi olarak oral ketokonazol (10mg/kg, 12 saat arayla) ve topikal klotrimazol verildi. Dişi kobay tedavinin 7. gününde öldü
