Se describe un caso de síndrome uveodermatológico en un perro Mastín español, macho, de 2 años. Los signos clínicos observados eran similares al síndrome de Vogt- Koyanagi-Harada humano y se caracterizaban por una uveitis asociada a una despigmentación y erosión cutánea y mucocutánea en cara, escroto, región perianal y almohadillas plantares. El estudio histopatológico reveló una dermatitis liquenoide, en la que predominaban los macrófagos. El tratamiento se basó en la administración oral de prednisona asociada a una terapia ocular tópica a base de atropina y corticosteroides. Al cabo de 8 meses las lesiones cutáneas y mucosas remitieron completamente. * A case of uveodermatologic syndrome in a male 2 year old, Spanish Mastiff is described.
