A nine-year-old three quarter-bred hunter was running badly. Excessive fluid was identified in the pleural space. A sample of fluid was withdrawn; it was light yellow and clear, and had an NCC of 5.5 × 109/l and a TP of 24 g/l. A cytospun smear of pleural fluid contained a mixed cell population including erythrocytes, neutrophils, macrophages and mesothelial cells, and many clusters of cells (Wright–Giemsa, ×100 oil).
