title: Corneal dermoid in a dwarf rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculi).
abstract: Histology after superficial keratectomy verified our diagnosis of corneal dermoid in a dwarf rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculi). To our knowledge, this lesion has not been reported previously to occur in dwarf rabbits. Ocular dermoids should be considered as a differential diagnosis for corneal abnormalities in the rabbit.
