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.
Despite the endemicity of brucellosis, there is no report on the equine brucellosis in Bangladesh. The Rose Bengal Test (RBT) was used to determine the seroprevalence of Brucella antibodies amongst 112 horses from different areas of Bangladesh. The overall seroprevalence of equine brucellosis was 1.79%.The prevalence recorded in Ghatail area was 3.45% and there was no positive reactor in Shakipur and Savar areas. Sex wise prevalence showed that the prevalence was 3.08%in female and 0.00% in male horse. Only the adult (>3 years of old) horses showed the positive RBT reaction (2.35%), whereas young (<3 years of old) horses did not showed positive RBT reaction. The present study reports the first serological prevalence of Brucella infection in horses in Bangladesh. There is need for the inclusion of horses in brucellosis surveillance and control strategies in Bangladesh to safeguard people from high risk.
