Acute, bilaterally symmetrical, ventral glistening alopecia, weight loss and lethargy were present in all cats. Skin biopsy specimens exhibited severe follicular and adnexal atrophy with follicular miniaturization, minimal inflammation and, in many cases, absence of stratum corneum. At the time of díagnosis, three cats had a metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma and one had a bile duct carcinoma. This report confirms, and expands upon the previous report of a syndrome associating ventral alopecia and metastatic visceral carcinomas in cats.}, number={1}, journal={VETERINARY DERMATOLOGY}, author={PascalTenorio, A and Olivry, T and Gross, TL and Atlee, BA and Ihrke, PJ}, year={1997}, month={Mar}, pages={47–52} } @article{atlee_stannard_fowler_willemse_ihrke_olivry_1997, title={The histology of normal llama skin}, volume={8}, ISSN={["0959-4493"]}, DOI={10.1046/j.1365-3164.1997.d01-13.x}, abstractNote={Skin biopsy specimens of normal llama skin were examined histologically. Adnexal structures similar to those of most other domestic mammals included epitrichial sweat glands, sebaceous glands and arrector pili muscles. Unique features of normal llama skin included a very thick dermis with marked differences between superficial and deep dermis, prominent cutaneous vascular plexuses, unidentified cells with eosinophilic granules within the adventitia of the vascular plexuses, both simple and compound hair follicles, ‘metatarsal glands’, ‘interdigital glands’, footpad glands and the absence of eyelid tarsal glands.}, number={3}, journal={VETERINARY DERMATOLOGY}, author={Atlee, BA and Stannard, AA and Fowler, ME and Willemse, T and Ihrke, PJ and Olivry, T}, year={1997}, month={Sep}, pages={165–176} }
