| description | In this case report, Chlamydia felis, herpesvirus and coronavirus correlations were revealed in a Persian cat with some complaints
related to the eye. Upon ophthalmological examination, there was a dark brown lesion on the right corneal surface, and some clinical signs
observed in the left eye resembling limbal insufficiency. As a result of ELISA test in blood, the FCoV and chlamydia antibody titers were
positive at the S4 level. Chlamydia infection was confirmed by real-time PCR analysis in blood and conjunctival samples. Tear samples were
found positive upon the herpesvirus antigen test. The lesions regressed after treatment, and the test results for chlamydia were negative
following the 7-week treatment period. |
