Circulating lupus anticoagulant and probable systemic lupus erythematosus in a cat

D Lusson et al. J Feline Med Surg. 1999 Sep.

Abstract

An adult domestic short hair cat was presented in a critical condition with icterus. Various investigations demonstrated the presence of haemolytic anaemia and hepatic abnormalities, as well as significant coagulation defects. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was suggested as a possible cause.
