phaidra.vetmeduni.ac.at o:2510 DOI 10.3390/v15091847 Feline Infectious Peritonitis: European Advisory Board on Cat Diseases Guidelines Feline coronavirus (FCoV) is a ubiquitous RNA virus of cats, which is transmitted faeco-orally. In these guidelines, the European Advisory Board on Cat Diseases (ABCD) presents a comprehensive review of feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). FCoV is primarily an enteric virus and most infections do not cause clinical signs, or result in only enteritis, but a small proportion of FCoV-infected cats develop FIP. The pathology in FIP comprises a perivascular phlebitis that can affect any organ. Cats under two years old are most frequently affected by FIP. Most cats present with fever, anorexia, and weight loss; many have effusions, and some have ocular and/or neurological signs. Making a diagnosis is complex and ABCD FIP Diagnostic Approach Tools are available to aid veterinarians. Sampling an effusion, when present, for cytology, biochemistry, and FCoV RNA or FCoV antigen detection is very useful diagnostically. In the absence of an effusion, fine-needle aspirates from affected organs for cytology and FCoV RNA or FCoV antigen detection are helpful. Definitive diagnosis usually requires histopathology with FCoV antigen detection. Antiviral treatments now enable recovery in many cases from this previously fatal disease; nucleoside analogues (e.g., oral GS-441524) are very effective, although they are not available in all countries. eng Polymerase-Chain-Reaction; Live Fipv Vaccine; Central-Nervous-System; Direct Immunofluorescence Test; Inhibits Viral Replication; Coronavirus Antibody Titer; Acute-Phase Protein; Quality-Of-Life; Spike Protein; Cerebrospinal-Fluid 2024-02-09T10:17:46.522Z LOMv1.0 Author BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Tasker;Séverine; FN:Séverine Tasker X-ORCID:https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4059-1402 END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Katrin;Katrin; FN:Katrin Katrin X-ORCID:https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5256-863X END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Möstl;Karin; FN:Karin Möstl END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Thiry;Etienne; FN:Etienne Thiry X-ORCID:https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9585-7933 END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Pennisi;Maria Grazia; FN:Maria Grazia Pennisi X-ORCID:https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3169-4194 END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Marsilio;Fulvio; FN:Fulvio Marsilio X-ORCID:https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9552-1199 END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Lloret;Albert; FN:Albert Lloret END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Frymus;Tadeusz; FN:Tadeusz Frymus X-ORCID:https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9160-1455 END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Boucraut-Baralon;Corine; FN:Corine Boucraut-Baralon END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Belák;Sándor; FN:Sándor Belák X-ORCID:https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2486-268X END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Truyen;Uwe; FN:Uwe Truyen END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Hosie;Margaret J.; FN:Margaret J.
