It's Your Case - 2yo rabbit with chronic dacryocystitis

Welcome to It's Your Case!

In the next instalment of It's Your Case, we take a look at a case of a 2 year old spayed Netherland Dwarf rabbit with chronic dacryocystitis which is non-responsive to topical treatment. A cone beam CT study of the head was provided and interpreted by one of our radiologists. Following that, part two is from our exotics specialist, Dr Copper Aitken-Palmer, discussing treatment options.

VetCT radiologist, Dr Steven Tsai, shares his findings from the cone beam CT of the head to see if any of the findings suggest a cause for the chronic dacryocystitis.
