“…The outcome could have been favorable if the treatment proposed had been instituted. Some authors have reported other satisfactory therapeutic options, including griseofulvin used as an immunomodulatory drug, and the combination of prednisolone with cyclosporine (MIURA et al, 2005;PARK et al, 2010).…”

Juvenile cellulitis (JC) is an uncommon vesiculopustular disease that affects dogs, especially those under four months of age. The aim of the present study was to characterize the epidemiological, clinical, and therapeutic profile of JC based on clinical records of canine patients treated at the Veterinary Hospital of the Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Árido, between the years 2009 and 2016. A total of five cases were diagnosed. Four dogs presented at an average age of two months and 22 days and were crossbred; the other dog was a rottweiler aged 38 weeks. The average time of evolution of the disease was 16 days, and the main clinical signs were edema, papules, pustules, and bilateral ocular discharge. The diagnosis was confirmed by cytology in four animals and by histopathology in only one patient. For all dogs, the treatment was based on cephalexin, administered for 30 days, and prednisolone for three weeks. Otological therapy was included when necessary. Four cases had a favorable outcome. JC is a rare dermatopathy that deserves special attention from veterinary practitioners. Keywords: Sterile granulomatous dermatites. Canis familiaris. Dermatology. ResumoA celulite juvenil (CJ) é uma doença vesiculopustular incomum que acomete cães principalmente na faixa etária inferior aos quatro meses. Este trabalho analisou o perfil epidemiológico, clínico e terapêutico da CJ em cães a partir da casuística do Hospital Veterinário da Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Árido, referente aos anos de 2009 a 2016. Cinco casos foram diagnosticados, incluindo quatro cães (80%), sem raça definida e com idade média de dois meses e 22 dias, e um da raça Rottweiler (20%) com 38 meses de idade. O período evolutivo médio das lesões foi de 16 dias e os principais sinais clínicos observados foram edema, pápulas, pústulas e secreção ótica bilateral. O diagnóstico foi confirmado por citologia (80%) e histopatologia (20%). Em todos os animais, o tratamento consistiu de cefalexina, administrada por 30 dias, e prednisolona, por três semanas. A terapia otológica tópica foi incluída quando necessária. Em quatro casos o desfecho clínico foi favorável. A CJ é uma dermatopatia rara que merece atenção especial dos clínicos veterinários.

Juvenile cellulitis was diagnosed in 18 puppies, 3 weeks to 5 months of age. When examined by the Dermatology Service, all puppies had facial (muzzle, lips, eyelids) lesions and enlarged submandibular and prescapular lymph nodes. Eleven dogs (61%) had pinnal lesions and 6 dogs (33%) had widespread skin lesions. Fever and lethargy were present in only 22% and 17%, respectively, of the puppies. Seventeen dogs were cured with immunosuppressive glucocorticoid therapy for 7 to 21 days. No side effects were reported.One mildly affected puppy spontaneously resolved. No relapses were reported.
