We present three cases of chronic follicular conjunctivitis resulting from the zoonotic transmission of from domestic cats. Our objective is to raise awareness regarding the potential zoonotic transmission of from domestic cats and describe the methodology for definitive pathogen identification using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and subsequent sequence analysis, a useful tool in the identification of these rare pathogens. We discuss the factors that could be contributing to the potential under-diagnosis of zoonotic infections and propose a treatment regime for cases of -related conjunctivitis.
我们报告了三例因家猫人畜共患病传播而导致的慢性滤泡性结膜炎病例。我们的目的是提高人们对家猫潜在人畜共患病传播的认识,并描述使用聚合酶链反应(PCR)和后续序列分析进行明确病原体鉴定的方法,这是鉴定这些罕见病原体的有用工具。我们讨论了可能导致人畜共患病感染潜在诊断不足的因素,并提出了针对与[具体病原体名称未给出]相关结膜炎病例的治疗方案。
