Abstract
Kernicterus secondary to hyperbilirubinemia is well described in people, but has rarely been reported in dogs. Therapeutic plasma exchange has been used for decades in people to rapidly decrease serum bilirubin when hyperbilirubinemia progresses to neurologic signs, but to the authors' knowledge this has not been described in a dog.
