Abstract

An 11-year-old, spayed female giant schnauzer was presented for evaluation of chronic, progressive tetraparesis. Diagnostic imaging was consistent with intervertebral disk protrusion, and surgical decompression and stabilization were performed. Postoperatively the dog did not improve, and further imaging suggested an intramedullary mass at the level of the sixth cervical vertebra. The dog was euthanized 7 days after surgery, and a teratoma was found postmortem.

摘要

一只11岁已绝育的雌性巨型雪纳瑞因慢性进行性四肢轻瘫前来评估。诊断性影像学检查结果与椎间盘突出相符，遂进行了手术减压和固定。术后该犬病情未改善，进一步影像学检查提示第六颈椎水平有髓内肿块。术后7天该犬实施安乐死，尸检发现为畸胎瘤。
