This cat was operated by me several months ago to remove bladder stones. Today, he has hair loss in both flanks, the belly area and the tail. Two bald spots on skin between the shoulders. Yellow-white specks of 3 mm across are seen in his hair, some of them moving. Are these fur mites the cause of hair loss?

The tail hair loss is usually due to anal sac impaction. There was some anal sac oil expressed but this cat was not happy with the expression.  

No more complaints from the owner
