초록

토끼에서 귀진드기는 딱지와 가려움증을 동반하는 심한 외이염을 유발할 수 있다. 본 증례 보고에서는 귀진드기에 감염된 세 마리의 토끼에게 10% imidacloprid와 50% permethrin 합제를 체중에 관계없이 0.4 ml으로 치료했다. 치료 1주 후 토끼들은 딱지와 성충, 충란없이 경미한 가려움증만 보였다. 치료 4주 후 토끼들에서 임상 증상이나 성충, 충란은 관찰되지 않았다. 모든 토끼들이 치료 8주 후 부작용없이 본 합제로 성공적으로 치료되었다. 본 증례 보고는 imidacloprid와 permethrin 합제가 애완 토끼의 귀진드기에 효과적이었다는 것을 보여준다.

Psoroptic mites can cause severe pruritic otitis externa with crusts in rabbits. In this case report, three rabbits with a psoroptic mite infestation were treated with a formulation containing 10% imidacloprid and 50% permethrin at a dose of 0.4 ml regardless of body weight. One week after treatment, the rabbits showed mild pruritus with no crusts, mites or eggs. Four weeks after treatment, there were no clinical signs, mites or eggs observed in the rabbits. The rabbits were treated successfully with this combination without adverse reactions for 8 weeks after treatment. This case report suggests that a single topical application of a combination of imidacloprid and permethrin may be an effective and practical treatment for psoroptic mite infestations in pet rabbits.
