Abstract：
Fine-needle aspirates from a 1.5-cm cutaneous mass in a Cocker Spaniel were submitted for cytologic examination. Marked pyogranulomatous inflammation and fungal organisms were present, identified as Candida parapsilosis complex by MALDI-ToF following fungal culture. The fungal infection was considered secondary or an incidental finding, following the diagnosis of a benign keratinizing lesion by histopathologic examination of the excised mass. This case is presented to increase awareness and describe the cytologic features of a potential pathogen, which is of increasing importance in human medicine but has a limited presence in the veterinary literature despite the potential for a similar significance.
摘要：
从可卡犬的1.5厘米皮肤肿块中抽取细针进行细胞学检查。存在明显的脓性肉芽肿性炎症和真菌生物，真菌培养后，通过MALDI-ToF鉴定为假丝酵母复合体。真菌感染被认为是继发性或偶然发现，通过切除肿块的组织病理学检查诊断为良性角化性病变。这种情况是为了提高意识和描述潜在病原体的细胞学特征，这在人类医学中越来越重要，但在兽医文献中的存在有限，尽管具有类似的意义。
