Ten (50%) dogs and 3 (14%) cats had systemic inflammatory response syndrome at the time of initial evaluation, and 8 (40%) dogs but none of the cats had disseminated intravascular coagulation. The overall mortality rate was 17% (7\/42), but was higher for dogs (6\/20 [30%]) than cats (1\/22 [4.5%]). All 6 dogs that died weighed \u2264 4.5 kg and had systemic inflammatory response syndrome, disseminated intravascular coagulation, or both.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE<\/jats:bold> Results indicated that <jats:italic>Cuterebra<\/jats:italic> infection can cause severe systemic illness in small-breed dogs. Yorkshire Terriers were more commonly affected than were dogs of other breeds and, subjectively at least, appeared to be more likely to develop severe systemic illness.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.251.12.1432","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,30]],"date-time":"2017-11-30T20:25:34Z","timestamp":1512073534000},"page":"1432-1438","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Systemic
