Abstract
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) has been diagnozed in our section material in 23 cats, 19 Persian and 4 domestic, of both sexes, aged between 5 months and 8 years. The majority of the infected population were animals under 20 months of age. The macroscopic finding in most cats was of granulomatous character, and large quantities of goldenyellow gelatinous exudate were observed in the stomach cavity of 7 animals, corresponding to the exudative form of FIP. Granulomas were in most cases located in the abdomen wall, liver, spleen, omentum and serous membrane of intestines, and the histological structure was characterized by fibrinoid-necrotic centers with numerous lymphocytes, monocytes, angioblasts and fibroblasts. Immunohistochemically, feline corona virus (FCV) antigens were exprimed in the cytoplasm of macrophages, more rarely in plasma cells in granulomas, and sometimes in necrotized areas.
Highlights
Infektivni peritonitis ma~aka (FIP), uzrokovan je corona-virusom koji je veoma srodan virusu transmisivnog gastroenteritisa svinja, corona-virusu pasa i corona-virusu kod ljudi Š71.
U novije vreme, FIP se sve ~e{}e dijagnostikuje u na{em sekcionom materijalu, uglavnom kod persijskih i ne{to re|e kod doma}ih ma~aka, oba pola Š21.
Marinkovi}: Infektivni peritonitis ma~aka (FIP) u na{em sekcionom materijalu zovane u trbu{noj duplji, mada nije redak nalaz granuloma i na pleuri.

Marinkovi}: Infektivni peritonitis ma~aka (FIP) u na{em sekcionom materijalu zovane u trbu{noj duplji, mada nije redak nalaz granuloma i na pleuri. Histolo{ka gra|a granuloma bojenih hematoksilineozinom, uglavnom je prepoznatljiva, mada se imunohistohemijskim metodama precizno potvr|uje prisustvo i lokalizacija virusnih antigena (FCV) Š51.
