[Differential postmortem diagnosis of rabies in cats].
300 cats, sent in for rabies diagnosis, which were obviously not infected, have been further examined with regard to their causes of disease and death. Traumata, uremia and panleucopenia have been observed most frequently. As expected, affections of the central nervous system often have been stated. The results of our investigations have been compared with autopsy statistics on rabies-unsuspected cats, published in literature. Furthermore the preliminary reports have been examined and compared with the anamnesis of 214 rabies-positive cats. The information of preliminary reports on rabies-negative cats and their pathological diagnosis has been discussed in the context of differential diagnosis.
