ABSTRACT

This is the first report of xanthomatosis in a leopard gecko, Eublepharis macularius, and is also the first report of successful surgical management of xanthomatosis in geckos. Clinical findings, surgical management, and post-operative follow up are described. Histopathologic findings of the xanthoma were consistent with previous reports. Similar to other authors' findings, this gecko was a female, suggesting a gender-associated problem in geckos.
