Otitis externa in dogs and cats. – Dr. Manolis Saridomichelakis

Otitis externa is one of the most common reasons for consultation in small animal clinical practice. Otitis is not a disease but a syndrome with multiple causes that are classified into predisposing, primary, secondary and perpetuating. These causes are frequently combined with each other and the failure to recognize and treat all of them can cause therapeutic failures and/or frequent relapses
