This study follows the treatment of six French bulldogs with paraparesis caused by congenital hemivertebra which were structurally mild but clinically severe. A standardized acupuncture ( zhēn jiǔ) treatment using (HTJJ) as local points and other distant points combined with Chinese herbs improved the clinical signs. Few, if any, published papers mention Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) for treatment of hemivertebral paraparesis in French bulldogs. Based on the rapid treatment outcome, we encourage practitioners to integrate this form of conservative management into emergency treatment.
本研究追踪了六只患有先天性半椎体导致的轻瘫的法国斗牛犬的治疗情况,这些半椎体在结构上较轻,但临床上较为严重。使用(HTJJ)作为局部穴位并结合其他远端穴位以及中药进行标准化针灸治疗改善了临床症状。很少有已发表的论文提及中兽医(TCVM)用于治疗法国斗牛犬的半椎体轻瘫。基于快速的治疗效果,我们鼓励从业者将这种保守治疗方式纳入紧急治疗中。
