ABSTRACT

Feline sporotrichosis is a zoonotic mycosis caused by fungi belonging to the Sporothrix schenckii complex. In the state of Ceará, there are no reports of isolation of this fungus in cats. This study presents the first report of feline sporotrichosis caused by the species Sporothrix brasiliensis in the state of Ceará - Brazil. The diagnosis was made through cytopathological examination, mycological culture and PCR. The findings were compatible with feline sporotrichosis caused by Sporothrix brasiliensis.

ABSTRACT

An unneutered female cat of unknown age presented bloody lesions on the edematous face, and respiratory signs. Cytology and culture from the skin sample collected with fine-needle aspiration showed yeasts inside activated macrophages, and fungal growth characteristic of Histoplasma spp., which was molecularly confirmed that was Histoplasma capsulatum var. capsulatum. The cat was successfully treated with oral itraconazole (10 mg/kg/daily) for 120 days. This is the first case report of feline histoplasmosis confirmed molecularly in Brazil.
