Abstract

The present study shows a case of canine rheumatoid arhritis. Different systems of diagnosis carried out, treatment applied, and results at short and lonq-term are reviewed. In every re-examination a complete hemogram, including proteinogram, and a synovial fluid analysis were carried out, moreover radiographs of affected joints were taken. This systematic procedure allows us to know the evolution after every treatment. After patient euthanasia, pathologic lesions of affected joints were analyzed and the clinic diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis was corroborated.
