Abstract
A nine-month-old miniature doberman was referred for the evaluation of chronic icterus. History and clinical and histopathological findings were supportive of a diagnosis of drug-induced destructive cholangitis. The main histopathological findings were canalicular, centrilobular cholestasis and ductopenia with moderate inflammatory infiltrate. The dog had received three types of treatment for demodicosis before the onset of jaundice. Amoxicillin-clavulanate, amitraz, milbemycin oxime or an interaction between two of the three drugs may have been responsible for the destructive cholangitis.
