Two domestic shorthair cats presented for clinical signs related to multifocal central nervous system dysfunction. Both cats had signs of vestibular system involvement and anisocoria, and one had generalized seizure activity. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis revealed a neutrophilic pleocytosis with protein elevation in one cat and pyogranulomatous inflammation in the second. Electroencephalography and brain-stem auditory-evoked potentials in the first cat confirmed cerebral cortical and brain-stem involvement. Euthanasia was performed in both cats, and postmortem diagnoses of phaeohyphomycosis secondary to Cladosporium spp. were made based on histopathology and fungal culture in both cats.
两只家养短毛猫因多灶性中枢神经系统功能障碍的临床症状前来就诊。两只猫均有前庭系统受累和瞳孔不等大的症状,其中一只还有全身性癫痫活动。脑脊液分析显示,一只猫为嗜中性粒细胞增多伴蛋白升高,另一只为脓性肉芽肿性炎症。第一只猫的脑电图和脑干听觉诱发电位证实大脑皮质和脑干受累。两只猫均实施了安乐死,根据组织病理学和真菌培养,两只猫死后均诊断为枝孢菌属继发的暗色丝孢霉病。
