Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Dermoid cyst is an uncommon developmental anomaly usually congenital or hereditary in nature which can result from either defective genetics or from a genetic insult/agent that's associated with the fetal environment or from their interaction. Dermoid cysts and congenital diseases are not most common in Bangladesh and the economic effect of congenital defects is not as high as compare with that of other diseases that have high economic effects. The main objective of this study is to report severe bilateral corneal dermoid with nasal hyperplastic tissue in a calf and its therapeutic measurements attended in veterinary teaching hospital, BAU.

Program Area: Animal Health and Management

Commodity: Calf, Diseases

Objectives:

To determine the Severe Bilateral Corneal Dermoid Cyst With Nasal Hyperplastic Tissue in a Calf

Methodology:

A two days old calf had been admitted at veterinary teaching hospital, Faculty of veterinary science, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh with a complain of difficulty vision with extra growth of conjunctiva with an abnormal appearance of both eyes and difficulty in breathing with a sign of open mouth breathing since birth. A large fleshy mass was attached to the cornea and sclera with a large number of temporally and superiorly directed hairs arising from the surface of the mass resulting blindness and continuous lacrimation. An overgrowth in nostril resulting difficulty in breathing and open mouth breathing. The clinical diagnosis was bilateral corneal dermoids and nasal hyperplastic tissue. The calf was admitted to the veterinary teaching hospital after initial examination. The calf weighed 25kg, was in good bodily condition and no other abnormalities were detected on physical examination. After clinical examination, calf was prepared for surgical excision of dermoid cysts. As the calf was 2 days old the operation was performed in two successive attempts of 7 days apart instead of both eyes at a time. The operation site was prepared for aseptic surgery by shaving, scrubbing and application of mild antiseptic solution. The calf was sedated with Diazepam 10mg (Sedil, Square Pharmaceuticals, Dhaka, Bangladesh) 2 mL ampoule, IM and restrained on table in lateral recumbency. Auriculopalpebral and Peterson nerve was blocked by local infiltration with 2% lignocaine hydrochloride (Jasocaine, Jayson Pharmaceuticals, Dhaka, Bangladesh) 5 mL. The cysts were excised by superficial lamellar keratectomy that was extended into the third eyelid, medial canthus, eyelid and bulbar conjunctiva. Cysts were carefully dissected from all adherent areas, stalks were ligated with chromic catgut (No. 1). The nasal masses were excised with first eye operation. Systemic amoxicillin 100mg/mL (Moxacil vet 2 mL 48 hours interval were administered IM for five days in addition to a local antibiotic and anti-inflammatory (for eye instillation). The calf recovered uneventfully. The calf was again examined after one month for rule out any reoccurrence. Re-examination after one month did not reveal any re-occurrence of dermoid cysts.
