Type III hypersensitivity reaction with immune complex deposition in 2 critically ill dogs administered human serum albumin

Abstract: In this case series, we documented a leukocytoclastic vasculitis and probable antigen-antibody complexes to human albumin in the dermis of 2 critically ill dogs after administration of HSA. Previously, type III hypersensitivity reactions had only been reported in healthy dogs that had received HSA. This report also describes the potential use of immunohistochemical staining to detect the HSA antigen in tissue sections through the use of specifically labeled antibodies.

“…In humans, replacement with 100% FFP is also rare and it is reserved for specific conditions. 26,27 and Type III hypersensitivity reactions, 28,29 respectively. Neither hospital-acquired AKI nor progressive proteinuria could be detected in these dogs during hospitalization or follow-up.…”

“…The blood albumin level was positively related to the HSA dose on day 4. Interestingly, HSA levels in 12 groups were almost the same at the end of treatment, suggesting that supplemented HSA was catabolized completely with the time (Powell et al, 2013). …”

“…Therefore, a risk remains that endogenous or synthetic colloid administration could lead to the extravasation of these macromolecules into the interstitium and potentially worsen edema.

“…There is limited availability of canine concentrated albumin solutions and human albumin may be harmful. [181][182][183] Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) has been studied extensively as a treatment for severe hemorrhage, but less research has been done in regards to its efficacy in repairing the EG. Animal hemorrhagic shock models have demonstrated that fluid resuscitation with FFP compared to crystalloids successfully restores the EG.…”
