SUMMARY:Feline Medicine\, Session 3
DESCRIPTION:Feline endocrinology secrets unravelled – Part 1: Feline hyperthyroidism\, feline hyperaldosteronism\nOne of the most important feline endocrinopathies undoubtedly is feline hyperthyroidism. Usually\, it is not the diagnosis and management of hyperthyroidism itself that poses a problem\, it is more about the co-morbiditis. Learn how to deal with concurrent chronic kidney disease\, gain awareness about the fact that systemic hypertension often develops only after establishment of euthyroidism\, discuss heart failure and the therapeutic consequenses in multimorbid cats and realize why producing hypothyroidism should be avoided by all means. And because it might look similar in the first place and diagnosis is not always straight forward we need to talk about feline hyperaldosteronism too.\nWhat you will learn:\n– A lot about feline hyperthyroidism and it`s co-morbidities (systemic hypertension\, chronic kidney disease\, heart failure)\n– When to think of feline hyperaldosteronism and how to diagnose it\nPreparation material:\n• Reading material providing an overview about feline hyperthyrodism\n• Reading material providing an overview about feline hyperaldosteronism\nLive workshop:\nSeveral cases will highlight the problems that may arise when dealing with feline hyperthyroidism and it`s co-morbidities. Some of them will be presented in a quizze format. Others will be discussed in more detail including gathering pros and cons within the group regarding different treatment options. \n

SUMMARY:Dermatology\, Session 4
DESCRIPTION:Diagnosis and management of canine hypercortisolism. – Dr. Manolis Saridomichelakis\nSpontaneous and iatrogenic hypercortisolism is probably the most common cause of endocrine alopecia\, frequently accompanied by additional skin lesions and systemic signs in dogs. Although in advanced cases diagnosis is usually straightforward\, there are dogs with less typical presentations posing diagnostic dilemmas. Furthermore\, the correct interpretation of low-dose dexamethasone suppression test results has changed in recent years. Finally\, there are multiple treatment options that should be prioritized depending on the cause of hypercortisolism\, and treatment monitoring is very complicated \nLearning outcomes:\nRational diagnosis and management of canine hypercortisolism (spontaneous and iatrogenic) \n

SUMMARY:Feline Medicine\, Session 4
DESCRIPTION:FIP – What`s new? What`s hot?\nSince treatment options for feline infectious peritonitis have been introduced we certainly see and treat more feline patients with FIP. Even in countries where medication is not readily available. But what about the diagnosis? Is it that simple? How efficient are new PCR tests and how to interpret test results correctly? An additional challenge is that some cats present with atypical signs. There are FIP cases that might be missed. And then there are others that might look like FIP but aren`t. Let`s have a detailed look into this together.\nWhat you will learn:\n– How to diagnose FIP in a typical case with focus on serum protein electrophoresis\, acute phase proteins and pcr testing\n– Be aware of atypical FIP presentations and how to diagnose them\n– An overview about treatment regimens\, medical support and monitoring\nPreparation material:\n• Recent journal article on FIP diagnostic tools\n• Recent journal article on atypical FIP\n• Recent journal article on treatment outcome\nLive workshop:\nCases with typical FIP\, cases with atypical FIP and cases with „look-a-like“ but not FIP are presented and you are deciding which is which – based on the diagnostics you choose. After having identified the true FIP cases we will briefly talk about treatment\, medical support and monitoring. \n

SUMMARY:Dermatology\, Session 6
DESCRIPTION:Canine leishmaniosis. – Dr. Manolis Saridomichelakis\nCanine leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum is highly endemic in South Europe but is gradually expanding northwards and imported cases are occasionally witnessed even in northern countries. The non-specific clinical presentation\, that may include one or multiple different types of skin lesions\, ocular and systemic signs\, the long list of differentials and the frequent reliance on serology as a stand-alone diagnostic test can lead to both overdiagnosis and underdiagnosis. Furthermore\, treatment monitoring and the decision for treatment discontinuation is very complicated. \nLearning outcomes:\nRational diagnosis\, treatment and monitoring of dogs with leishmaniosis based on current guidelines \n

SUMMARY:Emergency & Critical care\, Session 8
DESCRIPTION:Fluid Therapy in Anuric/Polyuric Patients\nManaging fluid therapy in anuric or oliguric patients poses a unique challenge. While fluids are often the cornerstone of stabilization\, inappropriate administration in these patients can quickly worsen their condition and lead to life-threatening complications. The emergency clinician must therefore balance the need for circulatory support with the risk of fluid overload.\nIn this case-based webinar we will discuss how to assess volume status\, how to distinguish between pre-renal\, renal\, and post-renal causes\, and how to guide fluid therapy accordingly. Special emphasis will be placed on setting appropriate fluid rates\, recognizing early signs of fluid overload\, and knowing when to move beyond fluid therapy to advanced interventions such as diuretics or renal replacement therapy.\nCase examples will highlight the decision-making process and the practical challenges clinicians face when tailoring therapy to these fragile patients. \nLearning outcome:\nAfter this webinar\, participants will be able to recognize anuric and oliguric states in dogs and cats\, assess the underlying cause\, and implement safe\, individualized fluid therapy strategies while minimizing the risk of fluid overload and secondary complications. \n

SUMMARY:Feline Medicine\, Session 5
DESCRIPTION:Talking about kidney disease\nIt is probably the most important disease in cats: chronic kidney disease? But is it always renal disease if you detect azotaemia on the blood work? And when can we classify a renal azotaemia as chronic kidney disease. How to differentiate from acute disease? And what about acute on chronic? Let`s find answers to all of these questions.\nAim:\n– Be able to differentiate pre-renal\, renal and postrenal azotaemia\n– Learn how to find out whether it is acute or chronic kidney disease\n– Take home some treatment guidelines for chronic kidney disease during different stages (early kidney disease\, acute on chronic disease\, advanced kidney disease)\nPreparation material:\n• Introductory video on how to differentiate pre-renal\, renal and post-renal azotaemia\n• Introductory video on how to differentiate acute from chronic disease\nLive workshop:\nRico\, Ruby\, Wilma\, Pim and some others will teach you how to differentiate pre-renal\, renal and post-renal azotaemia and how to classify renal azotaemia as acute\, chronic or acute on chronic. And once we have found out which of them have chronic kidney disease we need to talk about treatment options and the differences in the management of early vs advanced chronic kidney disease. \n

SUMMARY:Cytology\, Session 2
DESCRIPTION:Expect the unexpected: how cytology can redirect a case \nCytology is often used to support a clinical suspicion — one piece of the diagnostic puzzle. Many times it confirms what we expect. Occasionally\, however\, it completely changes the picture. In this webinar\, we will discuss clinical cases where cytology delivered unexpected answers and redirected the diagnostic approach — a reminder that when something “quacks like a duck”\, it isn’t always a duck. \nLearning Outcomes:\nBy the end of this webinar\, participants will: \n-Recognise ow cytology can challenge initial clinical assumptions\n-Integrate cytological findings critically into clinical decision-making. \nSpeaker: Paola Cazzini DVM\, MS\, DiplACVP (Clin Path)\, MRCVS\, University of Edinburgh\, UK\n

SUMMARY:Dermatology\, Session 8
DESCRIPTION:Otitis externa in dogs and cats. – Dr. Manolis Saridomichelakis\nOtitis externa is one of the most common reasons for consultation in small animal clinical practice. Otitis is not a disease but a syndrome with multiple causes that are classified into predisposing\, primary\, secondary and perpetuating. These causes are frequently combined with each other and the failure to recognize and treat all of them can cause therapeutic failures and/or frequent relapses \nLearning outcomes:\nSystematic approach to the diagnosis and treatment of predisposing\, primary\, secondary and perpetuating causes of otitis externa in dogs and cats. \n

SUMMARY:Emergency & Critical care\, Session 9
DESCRIPTION:Bleeding\nAcute bleeding disorders in small animals can arise from trauma\, hyperfibrinolysis\, or underlying coagulation abnormalities\, and they often present as life-threatening emergencies. The emergency clinician must be able to rapidly identify the underlying cause\, stabilize the patient\, and determine the most effective therapeutic strategy under time-critical conditions.\nIn this case-based webinar we will revisit the pathophysiology of bleeding disorders\, highlighting the differences between trauma-associated hemorrhage\, hyperfibrinolysis\, and primary or secondary coagulation abnormalities. We will discuss the diagnostic approach\, including point-of-care tests\, and how to prioritize stabilization measures such as fluid resuscitation\, transfusion strategies\, and antifibrinolytic therapy. Special attention will be given to recognizing when conventional therapy may be insufficient and when advanced interventions or surgical hemostasis are required. \nLearning outcome:\nAfter this webinar\, participants will be able to differentiate between the main causes of acute bleeding in dogs and cats\, apply a structured diagnostic and stabilization approach\, and implement targeted therapeutic strategies to control hemorrhage and improve patient outcome. \n

SUMMARY:Feline Medicine\, Session 6
DESCRIPTION:Feline endocrinology secrets unravelled – Part 2: D. mellitus\, acromegaly\, Cushing`s syndrome\nDiagnosing diabetes mellitus is not causing a problem in most cases. It usually gets difficult if the treatment response is not exactly what we would have wished it to be. We will look into monitoring of diabetic patients and possible reasons for insufficient treatment response. The focus will be on potentially underlying endocrinopathies such as acromegaly and Cushing`s syndrome. However\, new treatment options such as the SGLT-2 inhibitors will be discussed as well.\nPreparation material:\n• Short introduction on how to read glucose curves\n• Short introduction on SGLT-2 inhibitors\nLive workshop:\nSeveral short cases are presented in a quizze format asking you to provide answers using the knowledge you gained about glucose curves and SGLT-2 inhibitors. As soon as we have solved the most important issues around these two topics a case with acromegaly and another one with Cushing`s syndrome need to be worked up more extensively by you and you need to decide on how to treat them. \n

SUMMARY:Dermatology\, Session 9
DESCRIPTION:Fungal skin diseases. – Dr. Chiara Noli\nThere are several fungal diseases\, the most common ones are caused by dermatophytes usually growing on hair or skin keratin. Other less common usually saprophytic fungi can grow in the subcutis\, particularly in inmmumocompromised animals\, while others cause systemic infections. Many of these fungal agents are zoonotic and should be well identified and treated to avoid contamination. \nLearning outcomes:\nRational diagnosis\, treatment and monitoring of dogs with dermatopytosis\, subcutaneous or systemic fungal diseases \n

SUMMARY:Cytology\, Session 4
DESCRIPTION:Inside the Marrow: Diagnostic Bone Marrow Cases in Clinical Practice\nBone marrow evaluation is a critical diagnostic step when peripheral blood findings fail to fully explain a patient’s clinical picture. Interpretation of bone marrow samples requires a structured approach and careful integration of cytologic findings with clinical information\, hematologic data\, and histologic evaluation of core biopsy specimens. In this webinar\, we will work through a series of clinical cases illustrating common diagnostic challenges encountered during bone marrow evaluation in dogs and cats. Particular emphasis will be placed on recognizing cytologic patterns of disease\, correlating cytologic findings with core biopsy histology\, and understanding how ancillary diagnostics such as PCR-based testing\, PARR\, flow cytometry\, and immunohistochemistry can refine the final diagnosis. \nLearning Outcomes:\nAfter the webinar\, participants will be able to: \n-Apply a structured approach to the interpretation of bone marrow cytology.\n-Recognize key cytologic patterns associated with important marrow disorders.\n-Understand the complementary roles of cytology\, core biopsy histology\, and ancillary diagnostics in bone marrow evaluation.\n-Integrate bone marrow findings with clinical and hematologic data to guide diagnostic decision-making \nSpeaker: Francisco Conrado DVM\, MSc\, DACVP (Clinical Pathology)\, Tufts University\, USA\n
