Feline non-regenerative immune-mediated anaemia: features and outcome in 15 cases

Abstract: PRCA and NRIMHA are uncommon causes of anaemia in predominantly young cats. The prognosis is reasonable, with a mortality rate of 27%, and it can take at least 6 weeks before remission is observed. Following clinical remission, gradual withdrawal of immunosuppressive treatments should be attempted, with close monitoring for relapse; some cats may require long-term treatment. This study is the first to report the use of chlorambucil as an adjunctive immunosuppressant in these cases. Outcome did not differ for P… Show more

“…Most cats required long-term immunosuppressive treatment to maintain the disease in remission. [84][85][86] Two single case reports described the use of CsA in combination with immunosuppressive drugs at similar dosages to treat idiopathic, possibly immune-mediated, thrombocytopenia and immune-mediated granulocytopenia associated with thymoma. 87,88 Feline stomatitis CsA has been reported to be effective in feline gingivostomatitis.…”

“…Chlorambucil wird häufig bei der Katze z. B. zur Therapie des niedrigmalignen Lymphoms, aber auch bei chronisch entzündlichen Darmerkrankungen, IMTP und nichtregenerativen Anämien eingesetzt (18,97,108). Zu den Nebenwirkungen gehören in erster Linie Myelosuppression und Magen-Darm-Probleme (108).…”
