  • Title: Hematologic abnormalities preceding apparent recovery from feline leukemia virus infection.
    Author: Lester SJ, Searcy GP.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1981 Mar 01; 178(5):471-4. PubMed ID: 6263848.
    Abstract:
    A 5-month-old domestic short-haired cat was referred to the Western College of Veterinary Medicine because of hemorrhage from the mouth. Neutropenia and bone marrow dyscrasia developed within 2 weeks, and results of a fluorescent antibody test for feline leukemia virus (FeLV) were positive. During the next 6 months, the feline oncornavirus cell membrane-associated antibody titer increased, the hematologic abnormalities regressed, and the cat became negative to the FeLV fluorescent antibody test (FeLV test). The results of 3 consecutive FeLV tests were negative, and the cat has been clinically normal for the past 18 months.
