Resumo

The feline coronavirus is the etiologic agent of Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), which affects domestic and wild cats. The highest incidence of FIP occurs where there is high feline population incidence. Animals less than one year of age appear to be more susceptible. The FIP is characterized by effusive forms, not effusive or both. Renal cytology is indicated when there is clinical suspicion and laboratory evidence of disease. The objective of this report is to describe the cytological changes observed in one case of not effusive FIP in the kidney.
