A 3-year-old male sugar glider presented with pruritus and alopecia primarily affecting the back and neck regions. Dermatologic diagnostics ruled out common causes. Skin biopsies revealed cutaneous epitheliotropic T-cell lymphoma, a rare condition in sugar gliders. Despite treatment, the glider's condition worsened, leading to death. This case highlights the importance of thorough diagnostic evaluation in exotic pets.
一只3岁的雄性蜜袋鼯出现瘙痒和脱毛症状,主要影响背部和颈部区域。皮肤科诊断排除了常见病因。皮肤活检显示为皮肤亲上皮性T细胞淋巴瘤,这在蜜袋鼯中是一种罕见病症。尽管进行了治疗,这只蜜袋鼯的病情仍恶化,最终导致死亡。该病例凸显了对 exotic pets进行全面诊断评估的重要性。 (注:exotic pets 直译为外来宠物,这里结合上下文意译为外来物种宠物更合适,但按要求保留原文未翻译)
