Plasma cell pododermatitis was diagnosed in 2 cats with enlargement of the metacarpal and metatarsal footpads, ulceration of one of the affected footpads, and a history of chronic hemorrhage from the ulcerations. One cat was anemic (PCV, 14.6%). The ulcers were debrided and sutured to control hemorrhage, and the cats were treated with immunosuppressive doses of corticosteroids. Both cats had considerable reduction in footpad size after 3 to 4 weeks of treatment. Although there is evidence to suggest that plasma cell pododermatitis might be immune-mediated, or perhaps an allergic disease, the cause has yet to be determined.
2只猫被诊断为浆细胞性足皮炎,其掌垫和跖垫肿大,其中1个患脚垫出现溃疡,且有溃疡慢性出血史。1只猫贫血(红细胞压积,14.6%)。对溃疡进行清创和缝合以控制出血,并用免疫抑制剂量的皮质类固醇对猫进行治疗。治疗3至4周后,2只猫的脚垫大小均显著减小。尽管有证据表明浆细胞性足皮炎可能是免疫介导的,或者可能是一种过敏性疾病,但其病因尚未确定。
