OBJECTIVES: To investigate kidney function by determining serum symmetric dimethylarginine (sSDMA) and serum creatinine (sCr) concentrations in dogs with primary hypoadrenocorticism (PH) receiving long-term mineralocorticoid replacement therapy.

METHODS: Dogs with PH receiving a minimum of 12 months of either desoxycorticosterone pivalate or fludrocortisone acetate were included in the study provided that banked frozen serum samples were available for sSDMA analysis. sCr concentrations were retrieved from the medical records. In dogs still alive and presented for regular re-evaluations and in newly diagnosed patients, blood was prospectively collected for sSDMA and sCr determination.

RESULTS: Thirty-two dogs met the inclusion criteria. The treatment time ranged from 12 to 146 months after initial diagnosis (median, 55.5 months). The majority of dogs had normal sSDMA and sCr concentrations throughout the hormone replacement treatment. Both sSDMA and sCr concentrations were persistently elevated in three of 32 dogs. Further workup confirmed chronic kidney disease (CKD) in all three dogs.

CONCLUSIONS: Based on these data, the prevalence of CKD could be higher in dogs with PH receiving long-term mineralocorticoid replacement treatment than in the general dog population. However, additional studies with a larger number of dogs are needed to confirm it.
