  • Title: Ketoconazole therapy in a dog with systemic cryptococcosis.
    Author: Mason GD, Labato MA, Bachrach A.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1989 Oct 01; 195(7):954-6. PubMed ID: 2793578.
    Abstract:
    A 2-year-old dog had bilateral chorioretinitis and a cough. Systemic cryptococcosis was diagnosed by evaluating a trans-tracheal aspirate and a cryptococcal latex-particle agglutination antigen titer. Clinical remission was achieved with ketoconazole administration, an imidazole antifungal agent. Serial antigen titers were used to monitor treatment, which was continued for 12 months. Ketoconazole therapy was well tolerated by the dog.
