Selected Emerging Diseases in Ferrets

Abstract: Since their introduction as pets several decades ago, ferrets have become an increasingly popular household pet. Great strides have been made in improving their diet and understanding common diseases (eg, insulinoma, hyperadrenocorticism, lymphoma) that affect them. With the frequency with which these conditions are seen, it sometimes is easy to forget that ferrets can be affected by other diseases. Some of these diseases, such as cryptococcosis, are known, but may be increasing in incidence and range, whereas… Show more

“…Information regarding hematological abnormalities in ferrets with cryptococcosis is scarce and shows inconsistent results [14]. The data collected from the three cases in the current study ( Table 2) only share abnormalities attributable to chronic disease (anemia, neutrophilia, lymphopenia).…”

“…1,4,6,14,17,18,26 Similar studies do not appear to have been published in ferrets although, as in the koala, cryptococcal granulomas and rhinitis have also been reported in this species. 16,28 There are no studies where MR images have been correlated to normal macroscopic anatomy or CT images in koalas. The objectives of this study are to describe CT and MR images of the normal anatomy of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses of the koala (Phascolarctos cinereus), to provide reference figures for gross anatomy with corresponding CT and MR images, and to compare the features of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses of the normal koala with that reported in other domestic species.…”
