A Novel Approach to Peri-cloacal Pyogranuloma in an African Penguin: A Case Study

This study explores the use of intralesional methylprednisolone injection as an adjunct treatment for peri-cloacal pyogranuloma in an African penguin. Like a veterinarian tending to a wounded animal, the authors meticulously document the case of a penguin suffering from this condition. They detail the administration of antibiotics and antifungals, along with the subsequent use of intralesional methylprednisolone, resulting in the successful resolution of the pyogranuloma.
