Resumo: |
Pythiosis is caused by the oomycete Pythium insidiosum and affects domestic and wild animals and man. Treatment of choice for pythiosis is surgery, however, depending on the size and location of the lesion, it is an unfeasible procedure and relapses are frequently observed. Until this moment, there are no effective protocols for treatment, since there are no drugs with proved effectiveness in vivo. Due to the severity and absence of specific treatment for pythiosis, new researches are necessary to search new compounds that can be used in therapeutic protocols. So, it was evaluated the effect of bark extract of “barbatimão”, purified tannic acid, amphotericin B, DMSO and corticosteroid in the treatment of experimental pythiosis in rabbits. It was evaluated 21 rabbits which were divided into six different therapeutic protocols and it was not observed differences among them and control group. It is questioned the experimental model in rabbits, which is unique in literature. The lesions in this experimental model differ from that of natural condition in horses and dogs. This actual experimental model perhaps could not be suitable for new therapeutic protocols evaluation |
