Abstract
Four months old Yorkshire terrier suffered from seborrhea oleosa, and therefore was repeatedly, twice a week, treated with shampoo containing chlorhexidine diacetate. No adverse symptoms were noticed after first three baths. Immediately after the fourth bath the animal suddenly died. Necropsy disclosed only acute hyperaemia of the lung and mild dilatation of the both cardiac ventricles. Histological examination revealed hydropic degeneration and mild hyperplasia of the epithelial cells in the bronchioli. Plump to cuboidal endothelial cells, marked edema and hyperplasia of the subendothelial tissue, and hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the smooth muscle cells of the tunica media that caused stenosis or obliteration of lumen were present in the arteries of small diameter, situated in the neighborhood of the bronchi and bronchioli.
