 AB    Diseases caused by FeLV are very variable. They can be classified in
       FeLV associated, proliferative and neoplastic signs. Moreover there are
       other nonspecific diseases and clinically inapparent infections. FeLV as
       well as FIV may cause immunodeficiency syndromes; this is the main
       problem in FIV infections. In contrast to humans FIV does not induce
       specific secondary diseases. Positive diagnostic results obtained by use
       of commercial test kits must be verified by other methods. Methods of
       treatment and their problems are discussed.
