Clinical Otoscopy Case: Using JeetVet Veterinary Endoscope for Ear Disease in Dogs
Patient Background
A 6-year-old Labrador Retriever presented with frequent head shaking, scratching at the ears, and a foul odor from the right ear. Previous topical treatments provided only temporary relief.
Diagnostic Challenge
Routine otoscopic examination with conventional tools revealed limited visualization, making it difficult to assess the extent of inflammation and detect possible foreign material.
Intervention with JeetVet Veterinary Endoscope
A JeetVet Veterinary Endoscope was used for detailed otoscopic examination. The high-resolution, portable endoscope allowed the veterinarian to visualize the entire external ear canal and tympanic membrane without causing discomfort.
Findings
- ▪️Moderate otitis externa with debris accumulation
- ▪️Early signs of tympanic membrane irritation
- ▪️No foreign body present
▪️Targeted ear canal samples were obtained for cytology, confirming a bacterial infection.
Treatment and Outcome
Based on the endoscopic findings, a precise treatment plan including topical antibiotics and anti-inflammatory care was implemented. Follow-up endoscopy after one week showed significant improvement, and clinical symptoms resolved completely.
Clinical Value
- ▪️Accurate diagnosis and assessment of ear canal and tympanic membrane
- ▪️Minimally invasive, detailed visualization
- ▪️Portable Veterinary Endoscope integrates easily into routine veterinary practice
- ▪️Improved treatment accuracy and faster patient recovery
Conclusion
This case illustrates how JeetVet Veterinary Endoscope enhances otoscopic diagnosis in small and large animals. Veterinarians can make more informed decisions with minimally invasive tools, improving both patient care and client satisfaction.
