Article Synopsis
- New feline erythrocyte antigens (FEAs) have been identified, but the understanding of their immunogenicity and clinical significance, especially for FEA 4, is limited.
- In a study involving 19 healthy type A cats, 4 FEA 4-negative cats were transfused with FEA 4-positive blood to test for the production of anti-FEA 4 alloantibodies.
- The results showed that while FEA 4 did not trigger an immune response, one cat produced anti-FEA 6 antibodies, indicating the presence of a new immunogenic antigen that requires further investigation.
Three client-owned horses diagnosed with obstructive ureteral stones were referred and treated in a minimally invasive manner by retrograde ureteroscopy in conjunction with electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL) or laser Holmium:YAG lithotripsy (HYL). For all 3 horses, additional tests revealed variable degrees of azotemia and ureteral obstruction. Ultrasound examination (2 horses) revealed a loss of cortico-medullary distinction consistent with a chronic nephropathy.
