Sterile eosinophilic pustulosis in dog and man: comparative aspects.
Sterile eosinophilic pustulosis is a rare dermatosis of dogs and humans. The clinicopathologic aspects of the disorder are similar in both species. In both the disease is characterized by a moderately generalized, pruritic, sterile, follicular and nonfollicular papulopustular dermatitis. Blood and tissue eosinophilia are usually present. Response to systemic glucocorticoids is better in dogs, probably because of the larger doses that can be used. The disorder is chronic and recurrent in both species.
