title: Primary renal disease in a dog.
abstract: A 7-month-old Lhasa Apso with a history of polydipsia and vomiting was depressed, thin and dehydrated. Serum chemistry assays revealed hyperphosphatemia and azotemia, and urinalysis revealed isosthenuria, suggesting azotemia of renal origin. Antemortem renal biopsy specimens contained several sclerotic glomeruli, a few embryonic renal tubules and interstitial fibrosis, indicating renal dysplasia.
