[Idiopathic autoimmune haemolytic anaemia in dogs (author's transl)]

Three cases of autoimmune hemolytic anemia in dogs are described. The description includes results of laboratory tests. All three cases were characterized by a short course of disease before the first "crisis". One of the dogs is still alive 2 years after the first crisis, having had one remission after 3 months. A second dog died five days after hospitalization (four days after initiation of medical treatment) whereas the third dog was killed one day after initiation of medical treatment because of rapidly developing weakness.
