Abstract

Cheyletiella is a highly contagious genus of mites that live on the skin of cats, dogs, and rabbits. It can cause pruritus and dandruff in infested animals, however, it is difficult to diagnose this dermatosis in unsuspected cases since it is usually asymptomatic. The rate of infestation in infested pet owners is 20%. The dermatosis is seen as erythematous, pruritic and some necrotic papules on contact regions with the animal. In this case report, our objective is to draw attention to Cheyletiella dermatosis by presenting a case in which Cheyletiella dermatitis developed after contact with an infested dog.

Özet

Cheyletiella kedi, köpek ve tavşanların derisinde yaşayan bir akar cinsi olup yüksek oranda bulaşıcılığa sahiptir. İnfeste hayvanlarda kaşıntı ve kepeklenme şeklinde hastalığa yol açabilir, ancak sıklıkla asemptomatik olduğundan parazitten şüphelenilmedi- ği takdirde tanı koymak güçtür. İnfeste hayvan sahiplerinin de %2si infeste olmaktadır. Dermatoz, insanlarda infeste hayvanla temas eden bölgelere özgü eritemli, kaşıntılı, bazıları nekrotik özellikte papüller şeklinde görülmektedir. Bu olgu sunumunda infeste köpekle temas sonrasında Cheyletiella dermatiti gelişen bir olgu dolayısıyla bu dermatoza dikkat çekilmek istenmiştir.
