Abstract

Enucleation of the right eye was performed on a 12-year-old male Persian cat when therapy for uveitis failed. Histologic examination of the anterior and posterior chambers and the vitreous led to a diagnosis of endophthalmitis caused by Coccidioides immitis infection. The primary focus of infection was not determined. Latex particle agglutination, agar gel immunodiffusion, and complement fixation gave negative results for Coccidioides immitis antibody.

摘要

一只12岁雄性波斯猫因葡萄膜炎治疗失败而接受了右眼眼球摘除术。对眼球前房、后房和玻璃体进行组织学检查后，诊断为由粗球孢子菌感染引起的眼内炎。感染的原发灶未明确。乳胶颗粒凝集试验、琼脂凝胶免疫扩散试验和补体结合试验检测粗球孢子菌抗体均为阴性。
