An 11-year-old male Maltese dog was presented with sudden onset of convulsion and right sided circling. On neurological examination, left side proprioception and menace reflexes were delayed. Blood examinations indicatedsevere thrombocytopenia and increased hepatic enzymes. On brain magnetic resonance imaging, lesions were foundedon the left lateral subarachnoid space area. Those lesions showed hyperintense on T1-weighted images, hyperintenseon T2-weighted images and hyperintense on fluid attenuated inversion recovery images. Cerebrospinal fluid analysisrevealed xanthochromia and erythrophagocytosis. Coagulation test results demonstrated that fibrin degradation productand D-dimer concentrations were higher than normal range. The patient expired few hours after presentation. Thiscase report demonstrates intracranial hemorrhage with disseminated intravascular coagulation in a dog.
