초록

2년령 bearded dragon이 활력 감소 및 식욕 부진으로 충북대학교 동물의료센터에 내원하였다. 분변 검사 결과 다수의 세균과 함께 효모의 증식이 관찰되어 장염으로 진단되었다. 진균 배양 및 분자생물학적 진균 동정 결과 증식된 효모는 Pichia (P.) burtonii로 확인되었다. 치료는 ketoconazole과 trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole을 3일간 경구 투여하였다. 치료 3일 후 분변 내 효모는 사라졌으며, 이후 환자는 회복되었다. 본 증례와 사람에서의 보고를 종합하면 P. burtonii 는 장염이 있는 bearded dragon의 기회성 병원체로 추정된다. 또한 본 증례는 bearded dragon에서의 P. burtonill의 과증식에 대한 최초의 보고이다.

A 2-year-old bearded dragon was referred to the Veterinary Medical Center at the College of Veterinary Medicine, Chungbuk National University with reduced activity and anorexia. On fecal examination, over growth of a bacteria and the proliferation of a yeast-like organism were found. The patient diagnosed with enteritis. By using fungal cultures and molecular typing, the yeast was identified as Pichia (P.) burtonii. The bearded dragon was treated with oral ketoconazole and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole. After 3 days, the dragon was recovered and fecal examination showed that the yeast had disappeared from the feces. The strain P. burtonii is supposed opportunistic pathogen in bearded dragon with enteritis according to its reports in a human. This report is the first paper about overgrowth of P. burtonii in a bearded dragon.
