all clotting factors except Factor 8 are made in the liver
Factors 5,7,9,10 are first to go
liver can't digest fat and can't get Vitamin K from diet
DIC may result
Term
Ascites
Definition
lack of albumin synthesis so oncotic pressure is lost
vascular shunting due to fibrosis and portal hypertension
Term
Cutaneous Manifestation
Definition
dogs and cats get epidermal necorsis, erosion, ulceration, crusting, basal cell hyperplasia
