Abstract

Leishmaniasis and rickettsial diseases are endemic and common in Mediterranean countries and so, as in humans, these diseases could be an important cause of HLH in dogs and may respond to similar medications. In conclusion, we think that the diagnosis of HLH should be considered in dogs with pancytopenia and, in selected cases, immunosuppressive treatment might be warranted.
