dc.description.abstractA 2 years old male cat was presented to the Small Animal Surgery unit, Department of Veterinary Surgery and Radiology, Madras Veterinary College with the history of swelling on the right ear pinna for two days and the pet was scratching the ear for a week. On clinical examination, the right ear pinna was swollen, soft to touch and evinced pain on palpation. The condition was diagnosed as aural haematoma. A dry dark reddish brown substance was noticed on both the ear canal. The waxy material from the ear canal was collected and examined under microscope. Presence of live mites Otodectes cyanotis confirmed ear mite infestation. A triangular incision was made on the swollen part and serosanguinous fluid, blood clots and fibrin deposits were removed and flushed thoroughly with normal saline. Pressure bandage was applied. Injection ivermectin @ 400 μg/kg BW was given subcutaneously. Oral antibiotics were given postoperatively. E-collar was advised. Animal had an uneventful recovery. No recurrence was noticed.en_US
