Immune-mediated thrombocytopaenia (IMT) is a disease common in dogs and rare in cats. The disease is characterised by a low platelet count caused by destruction of the platelets from the immune system. IMT is the most common cause of thrombocytopaenia in dogs. [1]

[1] [2] These immune cytopenias may occur simultaneously or sequentially. [1] [3] Its overall phenotype resembles a combination of autoimmune hemolytic anemia and immune thrombocytopenic purpura. [1] [4] [5] Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a condition in which the red blood cells that normally carry oxygen are destroyed by an autoimmune process ...
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is an autoimmune disorder which occurs when antibodies directed against the person's own red blood cells (RBCs) cause them to burst , leading to an insufficient number of oxygen-carrying red blood cells in circulation . The lifetime of the RBCs is reduced from the normal 100–120 days to just a few days in ...
