Laura Reisfeld, Carlos Sacristan, Paloma Canedo, Bruna Schwarz, Ana Carolina 
Ewbank, Fernando Esperon, Jose Luiz Catao-Dias (2018). Fusariosis in a Captive 
South American Sea Lion (Otaria flavescens): A Case Report.  Mycopathologia, 
doi: 10.1007/s11046-018-0270-9


In this manuscript we described the clinical signs, associated lesions and 
diagnosis (thermography, imprint cytology, histopathology, culture, electron 
microscopy, PCR) of a fusariosis case by Fusarium sp. in the nails and skin of 
an adult male captive South American sea lion (Otaria flavescens) recently 
transferred from another zoological institution, and its successful long-term 
treatment with Ketoconazole PO (60 days) and Miconazole solution spray TO, 
followed by Itraconazole PO (30 days). Herein we provide a successful approach 
to the diagnosis and treatment of fusariosis.
