In a previous study of 68 ESS with CH, in which only one dog received corticosteroids, a median survival time of 189\u00a0days was noted. Some ESS with CH appear to improve with prednisolone treatment; therefore, we aimed to investigate the response to prednisolone in this breed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Participants<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ESS with histologically confirmed idiopathic CH were treated with prednisolone 1\u20132 mg\/kg\/day.

All symptomatic patients showed an initial clinical improvement. Two cases were euthanased while receiving prednisolone. The median time since diagnosis is 1715\u00a0days (range: 672\u20132105\u00a0days) and the remaining patients are clinically well, with seven patients still receiving a mean dose of 0.4 mg\/kg prednisolone every other day. Statistical analysis demonstrated significant (P&lt;0.05) reductions in serum alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase and bilirubin following 2\u20134 weeks of prednisolone
