Orbital exploration and histologic examination revealed a benign cyst consisting of fibrous tissue, conjunctiva, and skeletal muscle bundles. Bacterial culture of cystic fluid yielded few <jats:italic>Staphylococcus delphini<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>TREATMENT AND OUTCOME<\/jats:bold> Excision of the cyst and evisceration of the left globe were performed, and once daily treatment with orally administered enrofloxacin suspension (12.6 mg\/kg [5.7 mg\/lb]) and meloxicam (1 mg\/kg [0.45 mg\/lb]) was initiated. Over the next 4 days, the cyst redeveloped and progressively enlarged. Accumulated fluid was aspirated from the cyst, and 20 mg of gentamicin was injected intraorbitally with ultrasound guidance. Over the subsequent 27-month period, no recurrence of clinical signs or adverse effects were reported by the owner.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>CLINICAL RELEVANCE<\/jats:bold> To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of cyst formation after adnexal injury and evisceration in birds and its successful treatment with intralesional gentamicin injection. Findings emphasized the importance of preserving lacrimal puncta during adnexal or eye removal surgeries in birds. Intralesional injection of gentamicin with the goal of destroying fluid-producing cells may be a safe and effective way to treat intraorbital cysts in birds and other species, although additional research would be required to confirm this.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.253.9.1164","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,12]],"date-time":"2018-10-12T12:23:27Z","timestamp":1539347007000},"page":"1164-1168","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Successful chemical ablation of an intraorbital cyst caused by an eyelid injury and iatrogenic ankyloblepharon formation in a duck"],"prefix":"10.2460","volume":"253","author":[{"given":"Shin Ae","family":"Park","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Harriet","family":"Davidson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kimberly A.","family":"Thompson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rachel Policelli","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Erica","family":"Noland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dodd","family":"Sledge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer S.","family":"Thomas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andr\u00e1s M.","family":"Kom\u00e1romy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1272","reference":[{"key":"ref1","series-title":"J Avian Med Surg","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"120","DOI":"10.1647\/2012-007","article-title":"A technique for evisceration as an alternative to enucleation in birds of prey: 19 cases","volume":"27","author":"Murray M","year":"2013"},{"key":"ref2","series-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1580","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.239.12.1580","article-title":"Complications from residual adnexal structures following enucleation in three dogs","volume":"239","author":"Ward AA","year":"2011"},{"key":"ref3","series-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc","first-page":"1234","article-title":"Enucleation in birds of prey","volume":"183","author":"Murphy CJ","year":"1983"},{"key":"ref4","series-title":"Vet Clin North Am Exot Anim Pract","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"245","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cvex.2015.08.003","article-title":"Eye removal surgeries in exotic pets","volume":"19","author":"Diehl KA","year":"2016"},{"key":"ref5","series-title":"Schweiz Arch Tierheilkd","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"615","DOI":"10.1024\/0036-7281.148.11.615","article-title":"Unilateral evisceration of an eye following cornea and lens perforation in a sulfur-crested cockatoo (Cacatua galerita)","volume":"148","author":"Christen C","year":"2006"},{"key":"ref6","series-title":"Eur J Comp Anim Pract","first-page":"1","article-title":"Avian ophthalmology","volume":"17","author":"Bayon A","year":"2007"},{"key":"ref7","series-title":"J Anat","first-page":"285","article-title":"The structure of the Harderian and lacrimal gland ducts of the turkey, fowl and duck.
