The patient had a history of recurrent infections and, on previous blood tests, anaemia, leukopenia and thrombocytopenia were detected. At the time of presentation, the patient had been treated for 2 weeks with omeprazole, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, marbofloxacin and gabapentin, and for 3 months with prednisolone, in decreasing doses. A bone marrow aspirate and core biopsy were performed. Hypoplastic bone marrow was observed. Once underlying infectious diseases and exposure to toxins were ruled out, a diagnosis of aplastic anaemia was made. The patient was treated with eltrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist that stimulates primitive haematopoietic stem cells, used for the treatment of aplastic anaemia in humans. One week after starting eltrombopag treatment, all the affected cellular lines were recovered. The patient continued in remission 7 months after treatment.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/journal article2052-6121https://doi.org/10.1002/vrc2.675open access636.7.09:616Aplastic anaemiaBone marrowEltrombopagPancytopeniaVeterinaria3109 Ciencias Veterinarias
