Abstract:
A young German Shepherd puppy was presented to the clinic with signs of epiphora, chronic eye irritation, restlessness and some abnormal growth from left eye since birth. All the physiological and haemato-biochemical parameters were within normal range. Thorough ocular examination revealed conjunctivo-palpebral dermoid cyst as etiological factor. Surgical excision of dermoid cyst was performed under general anaesthesia. The dog recovered uneventfully with no signs of recurrence of dermoid cyst in next 6 months’ period.
