About this course
When should you suspect Alabama rot? Is there anything you can do to help your patient?
Cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy (aka CRGV or “Alabama rot”) has received a great deal of media attention over the past few years. As a result, many dog owners are understandably concerned about the disease. CRGV is a disease of unknown aetiology, characterised by ulceration of the distal extremities in dogs. It is variably associated with clinically significant renal azotaemia secondary to acute kidney injury (AKI).
