초록

A 6-year-old spayed female American Cocker Spaniel presented with episcleritis in the right and then the left eye (OS) at eight month interval. Repeated intralesional triamcinolone acetonide was administered subconjunctivally to both eyes (OU). During this period, scleral ectasia was revealed on ocular funduscopy OS and then confirmed on ultrasonography and computed tomography. A year later, conjunctival hyperemia occurred around remnant triamcinolone particles and was treated by resection of these particles in the OU. A recurrence of episcleritis, which did not regress, required repeated triamcinolone subconjunctival injections four months later in the OU. Four months after these injections OU, the dog was presented with bilateral conjunctival mass, which had developed over the previous month. The round-shaped masses with diameters of 1 cm were surgically resected from exposed scleral ectasia lesion of thin and bulging scleral surface in the OU. The cross-section of both masses showed a white-colored accumulation at the center and triamcinolone induced granulomas enclosing necrotic tissue were confirmed by impression cytology and histopathological examination.
