Эозинофильная гранулема (ЭГ) данной локализации может быть единственным патологическим проявлением либо сочетаться с другими формами комплекса эозинофильной гранулемы (КЭГ). Цель настоящей статьи описание клинического случая ЭГ языка у кошки, а также оценка возможности эффективного лечения с применением преднизолона.</p><p>Описание клинического случая. В статье представлен клинический случай ЭГ языка у кошки, у которой также наблюдались зуд, кожная эритема, а через несколько дней после формирования гранулемы языка кожная форма ЭГ. Диагностика поражения языка была основана на данных анамнеза, клинического осмотра и цитологического исследования. При цитологическом исследовании узлового образования на языке выявлен эозинофильный характер воспаления. На фоне терапии преднизолоном в дозе 2 мг/кг через неделю отмечалось значительное уменьшение объема ЭГ языка; в дальнейшем дозу препарата поэтапно снижали. Полный курс лечения преднизолоном составил 5 недель и завершился полным исчезновением клинических симптомов. </p></sec><sec><title>Обсуждение</title><p>Обсуждение. Согласно литературным данным, причинами ЭГ языка могут быть аллергические факторы: блошиный дерматит, пищевая аллергия и непищевая гиперчувствительность. Клинические проявления способны развиваться как одновременно с кожными симптомами, так и без них. В представленном случае зуд и эритема кожи возникли через несколько дней после формирования эозинофильной бляшки на языке. Преднизолон может применяться для терапии ЭГ ротовой полости; его стартовые дозы составляют от 2 до 4 мг/кг в сутки. В нашем наблюдении начальная доза преднизолона 2 мг/кг в сутки с последующим поэтапным снижением обеспечила выраженный терапевтический эффект.</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Представленные в статье результаты лечения и фотоматериалы, демонстрирующие проявления ЭГ в ротовой полости, могут быть полезны для практикующих специалистов: ветеринарного врача общей практики, стоматолога, онколога и дерматолога, в том числе при дифференциации опухолевых и неопухолевых поражений языка. Показана значимость цитологического исследования для диагностики ЭГ. Применение преднизолона продемонстрировало эффективность при терапии ЭГ языка.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction. Recently, there has been a large number of oral diseases in cats. Eosinophilic granuloma (EG) of the oral cavity may be a single lesion or occur simultaneously with other forms of the eosinophilic granuloma complex (CEG). The purpose of this article is to describe a clinical case of eosinophilic granuloma of the tongue in a cat and the possibility of effective treatment with prednisone.</p><p>Description of a clinical case. The article presents a clinical case of EG of the tongue in a cat, which also showed symptoms of itching, cutaneous erythema, as well as skin EG a few days after the formation of a tongue granuloma. The diagnosis of EG of the tongue was based on the data of anamnesis, clinical examination, cytological examination. Cytological examination revealed eosinophilic inflammation of the nodular formation on the tongue. During prednisone therapy at a dose of 2 mg / kg after a week, a significant decrease in the volume of the EG tongue was noted, then the dose was gradually reduced. The full course of prednisone therapy was 5 weeks until the symptoms completely disappeared.</p></sec><sec><title>Discussion</title><p>Discussion. According to literature data, allergic factors (flea dermatitis, food allergy and non-food hypersensitivity) can be the causes of EG of the tongue. The symptoms may occur simultaneously with or without skin symptoms. In our case, the manifestation of itching, erythema of the skin appeared a few days after the formation of an eosinophilic plaque on the tongue. Prednisone can be used as therapy for oral hypertension, with starting doses ranging from 2 to 4 mg/kg per day. In our case, the starting dose of prednisone 2 mg / kg day, followed by a gradual dose reduction, had a pronounced therapeutic effect.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. The treatment results and photographic materials provided in the article, demonstrating the manifestations of EH in the oral cavity, are useful for practicing specialists: a general veterinarian, dentist, oncologist, dermatologist, including in the differentiation of tumor and non-tumor lesions of the tongue. The importance of using cytological examination for the diagnosis of EH is shown. The use of prednisone has shown efficacy in the treatment of EG tongue.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>ювенильный целлюлит</kwd><kwd>иммуносупрессия</kwd><kwd>вакцинация</kwd><kwd>ГКС</kwd><kwd>рубцы</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>clinical case</kwd><kwd>eosinophilic granuloma</kwd><kwd>oral cavity</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Anderson JG, Hennet Ph.
