Abstract
PLEASE NOTE A NEW 4TH EDITION HAS BEEN PUBLISHED AND IS AVAILABLE IN THE LIBRARY AND IN PRINT
Diseases of the nasal planum and footpads in cats and dogs range from benign disorders to severe, life-threatening conditions. Changes in the architecture of the skin in these regions can, in the early stages, be very subtle. Close observation and knowledge of specific differential diagnoses of diseases of these specialized areas of skin can be very useful as the treatment and prognosis vary with the disease entity. The chapter considers the following: Differential diagnosis; and Clinical approach.
