Abstract:

 

In recent years, we have encountered more exotic animals in our clinics. The one of the most common of
these animals are reptiles. They are herbivorous reptile that native to Central and South America. The
most important predisposing factor is the husbandry and the management of these animals. If a green
iguana stays in poor care conditions, the immune system will deteriorate and diseases will occur.
Therefore, in order to diagnose the diseases more easily, it is very important to learn about the animal's
conditions of care at first. Diagnostic methods include physical examination, routine blood tests
(hemogram and biochemical parameters), imaging diagnostic methods (radiology, ultrasonography,
endoscopy, tomography, MR). Parasitological and microbiological investigations may also be included in
cases where necessary. In this speech, diagnosis and treatment of common diseases in this animals that
brought to our faculty clinic will be discussed.
