[Parinaud's oculo-glandular syndrome secondary to cat-scratch disease].

Abstract

A 56 year old patient with an oculo-glandular syndrome of Parinaud, secondary to a cat scratch disease, is presented. The biopsy of the palpebral conjunctiva and parotid gland showed a non-caseous granulomatosis. The patient met the diagnosis criteria for cat scratch disease and, after treatment with a low dosage of steroids, showed a good evolution.
