“…Nesse trabalho é apresentado um relato de balanopostite, no qual destacamse formas de diagnóstico e tratamento na espécie canina. Embora, os cães sejam acometidos por essa enfermidade, vale destacar que, a balanopostite pode afetar seres humanos, equinos e bovinos (SILVA et al, 2007;DIAS et al, 2013;PANDYA et al, 2014).…”

“…Particularmente, a balanopostite é uma afecção que acomete cães em qualquer idade, a qual é definida como um processo inflamatório da glande do pênis (balanite) com acometimento da mucosa prepucial (postite) (DIAS, 2013). Sendo, dessa forma, um conjunto de condições diferentes com apresentação clínica e etiologias variadas (PANDYA et al, 2014).…”

RESUMONos cães, a balanopostite é uma das afecções que podem atingir o sistema reprodutor de machos de diferentes raças e idades. Sendo esta, uma condição caracterizada através da inflamação da glande e do prepúcio do pênis. Que embora tenha gravidade variável, pode acarretar problemas ulcerativos, reprodutivos e até mesmo necrose. Por ser considerada uma patologia recorrente, com implicações graves à saúde canina, o objetivo desse trabalho é relatar o diagnóstico e tratamento da balanopostite em um cão errante. Foi atendido no ambulatório da Clínica Veterinária Escola da Universidade Federal de Sergipe, campus do Sertão, um cão (Canis familiaris), macho, adulto, com dois anos de idade aproximadamente, sem raça definida, pesando 15,2kg com histórico de secreção peniana fétida e recorrente. Na avaliação clínica, observou-se a presença de inflamação associada a dor durante a manipulação prepucial, além de edema peniano e gotejamento constante de secreção purulenta esverdeada com odor fétido. Sugerindo-se a ocorrência de balanopostite, realizou-se a citologia por imprint da secreção peniana, assim como, a confecção de swabs da mucosa prepucial e da glande para avaliação da celularidade. O tratamento consistiu inicialmente na terapia antibiótica e antiinflamatória, atrelada à limpeza com solução antisséptica. Com a regressão das lesões genitais ao 10º dia, o paciente foi submetido a orquiectomia. Alcançando a redução significativa de neutrófilos, bactérias e células epiteliais, 10 dias após o procedimento cirúrgico, quando obteve alta médica.

Background: Postmarketing surveillance had previously identified the need for revisions in the labeling of the sodiumglucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors drug class related to the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis. Other adverse events have been reported. Objective: To examine postmarketing surveillance data of the SGLT2 inhibitors, using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database, specifically to assess prevalence of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and genital fungal infections. Methods: FAERS case reports submitted between March 2013 and November 2015 were reviewed for 6 SGLT2 inhibitors (mono and combo therapies). The Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) was used to define preferred terms (genital fungal infections: vulvovaginal mycotic infection, vulvovaginal candidiasis, urinary tract infection fungal, and genital candidiasis; UTI: urinary tract infection, genitourinary tract infection, kidney infection, cystitis, and pyelonephritis). Word frequencies were queried using the qualitative data analysis software NVivo 11 (QSR International), and results were then individually reviewed. Results: A total of 12 581 cases were received, but 466 were excluded (total n = 12 115). A total of 348 cases related to genital fungal infections were reported (2.9% of reports submitted): dapagliflozin = 53, empagliflozin/linagliptin = 6, canagliflozin = 267, canagliflozin/metformin = 3, empagliflozin = 17, and dapagliflozin/metformin HCl ER = 2. A total of 727 cases related to UTIs were reported (6% of reports submitted): dapagliflozin = 168, empagliflozin/linagliptin = 5, canagliflozin/metformin = 8, canagliflozin = 503, empagliflozin = 38, and dapagliflozin/metformin HCl ER = 5. Conclusions: A causal relationship between SGLT2 inhibitors and the adverse events reported cannot be established due to the nature of postmarketing surveillance. However, health care providers should counsel patients about these potential adverse events.

Background: Balanoposthitis is a common dermatological condition across the globe, but studies describing clinico-morphologic features and their diagnostic correlates are scarce. Objective: To study various morphological patterns of balanoposthitis and their correlation with etiological diagnosis. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on all patients with balanoposthitis visiting the dermatology out-patient department and sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinic over a period of 8 months. Detailed history, demographic data, and clinical features were recorded. Relevant investigations were performed. Results: A total of 129 patients of balanoposthitis were studied. Common causes were because of candida (33.3%), bacteria (17.1%), irritants (13.3%), herpes (11.4%), drugs (8.6%), and lichen sclerosus (6.7%). Common morphological patterns were erosion/confluent wet erythema with sub-preputial discharge (24.81%), fissure with superficial pustules (15.5%), fissure alone (13.18%), patchy dry erythema (11.63%), and superficial pustules (intact or exfoliated) with or without underlying erythema (10.85%). Fissure and superficial pustules were the most common presentation of candidal balanoposthitis (51.43%), erosions/confluent wet erythema with sub-preputial discharge of bacterial balanitis (55.56%), and patchy dry erythema of irritant balanitis (50%). Limitations: Detailed investigations such as fungal culture, herpes serology, real-time polymerase chain reaction and histopathology could not be performed. Conclusion: Certain morphological patterns of balanoposthitis strongly point toward final diagnosis which can help in quick diagnosis and early treatment in resource poor settings, especially in STDs.
