| Popis: | Haematological findings, at presentation, in 35 cases of canine autoimmune haemolytic anaemia (AHA) were documented. A regenerative anaemia was not found in all cases of AHA. The range of haematological findings spanned a spectrum from aplasia, through normocytic/normochromic red cell morphology, to marked regeneration. Primary AHA was compared to secondary AHA with respect to haematological parameters and some differences were recorded: the degree of anaemia being significantly more marked in the primary cases. In some cases, red cell parameters were not considered reliable due to spurious red cell indices being obtained. The haemoglobin value and reticulocyte count in absolute numbers provided accurate data characterising the type of anaemia. |
