Abstract

|
|
This report described clinical findings and Magnetic resonance image (MRI) results in two small breed dogs with fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE). They were admitted with asymmetric acute-onset tetra/paraparesis with superficial pain sensation. In addition, there were no back pain and no progression of clinical signs. Cerebrospinal fluid and laboratory findings were evaluated. MRI revealed a similar focal intramedullary lesion of hyperintensive signals on T2-weighted images. Based on these findings, it was diagnosed as fibrocartilaginous embolic myelopathy in those two dogs.
