Abstract

An eight-year-old intact male Beagle had anorexia, vomiting, depression for two days. The dog had hypoalbuminenia and mild azotemia on hematologic and clinical chemistry examinations. Severe proteinuria was identified on urinalysis. On abdominal ultrasonographs, there were small amount of ascites and bilateral renomegaly with severe hyperechoic renal cortex and hyperechoic medullary rim sign. Renal biopsy and histopathology revealed renal amyloidosis. The quality of life in this dog was satisfactory with aggressive supportive care for three months. Euthanasia was performed due to deteriorated azotemia and nephrotic syndrome.
