Abstract

A 9 months old male and a 1-year old female crossbreed cats were presented with history of unilateral sudden onset cloudy eye has been reported in this study. Ophthalmological examination was revealed clear corneal surface, corneal edema did not occurred, homogeneous blurred with white color in the anterior chamber of the eyes in both cases and laboratory findings were revealed hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia. According to the ocular and laboratory examination findings after the anamnesis, the patients were diagnosed with hyperlipidemia-related aqueous lipidemia. Topical ophthalmic solution of prednisolone sodium fosfat 1% was applied 2 drops, 5 times in a day and low-fat diet was recommended. Both patients were responded to medical treatment within one week, positively. No complications were encountered during the 2-year follow-up period of the patients.

İki Kedide Hiperlipidemi ile İlişkili Anterior Üveit ve Aköz Lipidozis

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, tek gözlerinde ani şekillenen bulanıklık şikayeti ile getirilen 9 aylık erkek ve 1 yaşında dişi melez iki kedi rapor edilmiştir. Yapılan göz muayenesinde her iki gözde homojen dağılmış beyaz renkli bulanıklık ile laboratuar bulgularında hipertrigliseridemi ve hiperkolestrolemi varlığı belirlendi. Alınan anamnez sonrası yapılan oküler ve laboratuar muayene bulgularına göre hastalara hiperlipidemi ile ilişkili aköz lipidemi teşhisi koyuldu. Topikal prednizolon sodyum fosfat 1 % günde 5 kez 2 damla şeklinde uygulanırken, düşük yağlı diet önerildi. Her iki hastada bir hafta içerisinde medikal tedaviye olumlu yanıt alındı. Hastaların yaklaşık 2 yıllık kontrol süreleri boyunca herhangi birkomplikasyon ile karşılaşılmadı.
