Title: Feline leukemia virus and feline immunodeficiency virus. Author: Willis AM. Journal: Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract; 2000 Sep; 30(5):971-86. PubMed ID: 11033869. Abstract: Ophthalmic manifestations of FeLV or FIV infection can occur in all ocular tissues and may be manifestations of direct viral effects or secondary to viral-related malignant transformation. Additionally, the manifestations of common feline ophthalmic pathogens may be more severe and poorly responsive to therapy because of the immunosuppressive effects of FeLV or FIV infection. Prompt diagnosis of underlying viral infection in cats with ophthalmic disease is paramount for accurate diagnosis and prognosis and is required for appropriate therapeutic decision making.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
