Abstract
Here, we report two canine and one feline cases whose history and/or histopathological findings were compatible with thermal burn. Case 1 was a dog in which solitary ulcerated and necrotizing skin was recognized on the dorsal median line. Case 2 was a dog in which extensive ulcerated and necrotizing skin was recognized on the left scapular region. Case 3 was a cat in which alopecia, erythema, excoriation and scales were recognized on the lower and lateral abdominal skin. Histpathological findings were compatible to third-degree burn in cases 1 and 2 as well as deep second-degree burn in case 3. All of these cases were diagnosed as thermal burn as they had histories of contact with sources of heat before the disease development.
