Abstract

A 1-year-old, male domestic short haired cat was presented to our Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Istanbul-Cerrahpaşa due to complaints of blepharospasm and epiphora in both eyes present since birth. In the ocular examination, absence of a part of palpebra in both eyes and persistent pupillary membrane (PPM) in the left eye were observed. There was trichiasis irritating the corneas in both eyes. Bilateral palpebral defects and secondary trichiasis were repaired using a Roberts and Bistner technique. This technique provided a good cosmetic appearance and functional outcome to the patient. Roberts and Bistner technique is recommended in treating congenital, bilateral eyelid coloboma.

Özet

1 yaşında erkek sarman kedi, İstanbul- Cerrahpaşa Üniversitesi, Veteriner Fakültesi’ne, iki gözünde doğduğundan beri devam eden blefarospazm ve epifora şikayeti ile getirildi. Oftalmolojik muayenede her ikisinde mevcut olan üst göz kapağı agenezisi ve sol gözünde persistent pupillar membran olgusuna rastlandı. Bunlara ek olarak korneaları irrite eden trişiyazis de tespit edildi. Olguda teşhis edilen bilateral göz kapağı agenezisi ve buna bağlı oluşan sekonder trichiasis, Roberts ve Bistner tekniği kullanılarak düzeltildi. Teknik hastaya iyi bir kozmetik görünüm ve işlevsel sonuç sağladı. Bu olgu sunumu, ülkemiz veteriner literatüründe tedavisi Roberts ve Bistner tekniği kullanılarak yapılan bir kedide bilateral, konjenital, göz kapağı kolobomunun ilk tanımlandığı çalışmadır.
