| Abstract: | During the dry season 1990-1991, an outbreak of ovine granular keratoconjunctivitis occurred in C?te-d'Ivoire. The chlamydial etiology was demonstrated. All flocks were affected, with a morbidity rate of 30 to 70%. Lesions of keratitis were observed in 5 to 15% of the sick animals. The treatment with Auréomycine (ND-Specia, ophthalmic ointment) was constantly efficient. |
