Bee sting-induced haemolysis, spherocytosis and neural dysfunction in three dogs.

Three dogs showed signs of intravascular haemolysis, spherocytosis and peripheral neuropathy following severe bee envenomation. These effects were ascribed to the constituents of bee venom, especially melittin and phospholipase A. All 3 cases recovered and were discharged subsequent to prednisolone and supportive therapy.

Polycythaemia vera in a dog.

An 8-month-old Dachshund showed signs of severe depression and intermittent, mild generalised seizures. A diagnosis of polycythaemia vera was made and the clinical signs ascribed to the hyperviscosity associated with this condition. Treatment by phlebotomy was initiated before the dog died.
