[Acquired transient Fanconi syndrome after feeding jerky treats in dogs - A case series]. / Erworbenes transientes Fanconi-Syndrom nach Fütterung von Trockenfleisch als Leckerchen beim Hund.

Between April 2018 and August 2019, 6 dogs with laboratory diagnostic evidence of Fanconi syndrome were presented to the Tierklinik Hofheim. The presumptive diagnosis was confirmed via urine amino acid analysis in all dogs. In 5 of the 6 dogs an alimentary origin was suspected, in 3 dogs the course of the disease could be followed. Supportive therapeutic measures and elimination of jerky treats from the dogs' diet improved the clinical symptoms in all dogs with known follow-up. This is the first case series of dogs with alimentary acquired Fanconi syndrome in Germany. The frequency of occurrence of the disease in that short period of time in only one small animal clinic suggests a significantly higher incidence than currently assumed.
