BACKGROUND
Leporacarus gibbus is a highly specific acarian parasitizing in rabbits, with a proven zoonotic potential. While the majority of cases of L. gibbus infestation are asymptomatic, several cases of pruritic cutaneous condition in both laboratory and pet rabbits were reported. Up to date, L. gibbus has not been linked with clinical signs in any other species than rabbits and humans.
CASE PRESENTATION
This case report described the clinical case of a 14-month-old cat with a dermatitis linked to L. gibbus. Mites specimens were collected by brushing, followed by light microscopy examination and species identification. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of L. gibbus-related dermatitis in cat.
CONCLUSIONS
L. gibbus infestation should be considered as a possible differential diagnosis of pruritic skin conditions in cat.
背景
兔痒螨是一种高度特异性的寄生于兔的螨类，具有已证实的人畜共患病潜力。虽然大多数兔痒螨感染病例无症状，但在实验室兔和宠物兔中均有几例瘙痒性皮肤疾病的报道。迄今为止，除兔和人类外，兔痒螨尚未与其他任何物种的临床症状相关联。
病例报告
本病例报告描述了一只14个月大的猫患与兔痒螨相关的皮炎的临床病例。通过刷拭采集螨标本，随后进行光学显微镜检查和物种鉴定。据我们所知，这是猫中兔痒螨相关皮炎的首例报告。
结论
兔痒螨感染应被视为猫瘙痒性皮肤病的一种可能鉴别诊断。
