Abstract

Polydipsia/polyuria syndrome is not a common manifestation in birds. 31 Hyperglycemia was found on plasma chemistry in an African Grey Parrot (Psittacus 32 erithacus), which was presented with polyphagia and self mutilation symptoms. 33 Radiography demonstrated signs of mild renalomegaly, air sac involvement which 34 proved to be due to mycoplasma spp. infection on bactriological examination. The 35 polydipsia, polyphagia and polyuria were treated successfully by insulin regime but self 36 mutilation around the neck was to be most consistent sign for 45 days since the bird 37 presented to our Faculty’s clinic. The exact origin of the Polydipsia/polyuria and mild 38 hyperglycemia remains unclear but the history of long time topical cortone therapy might 39 be involved.
