Resumo

The main causes of protein losing enteropathy in dogs are intestinal lymphangiectasia, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and intestinal lymphoma. The aim of this research is to 2 Rodríguez‐Franco, F. et al. Revista Complutense de Ciencias Veterinarias 6 (2) 2012: 1‐10 clinically characterize inflammatory bowel disease causing hypoproteinemia and ascitis in the dog. For this purpose clinical histories of 14 dogs were revised retrospectively. The results of the current study show that this disease is most common in adult dogs with mean ages around 5 years, and more frequently diagnosed in Yorkshire Terrier and Rottweiler breeds. Clinical signs included mainly chronic diarrhea with small intestine characteristics (100%), weight loss (64%), vomiting (39%) and decreased appetite (21%). All 14 cases presented total serum protein under 3,5g/dl (mean value 2,83±0,44 g/dl), albumin under 1,7 g/dl (mean value 1,45±0,17 g/dl), and albumin/globulin fraction around 1.
