A 4-year-old, male Bernese mountain dog was evaluated for a 1-year history of right hemiparesis. Computed tomography revealed a large hypoattenuating mass severely deforming the C5 vertebral arch, invading the C6 spinal canal, and causing spinal cord compression. The signal characteristics of magnetic resonance imaging indicated a lesion composed of adipose tissue. The mass was removed via right hemilaminectomy, and histopathological examination confirmed it was an infiltrative lipoma. The compressive lesion remained unresolved, so the dog underwent a second operation, after which he regained some ambulatory function. Although postoperative adjunctive radiation therapy was performed, the dog died 201 days after the first operation.
一只4岁的雄性伯恩山犬因右侧偏瘫1年接受评估。计算机断层扫描显示一个大的低密度肿块,严重使C5椎弓变形,侵入C6椎管并导致脊髓受压。磁共振成像的信号特征表明该病变由脂肪组织构成。通过右侧半椎板切除术切除肿块,组织病理学检查证实为浸润性脂肪瘤。压迫性病变仍未解决,因此这只狗接受了第二次手术,术后恢复了一些行走功能。尽管术后进行了辅助放射治疗,但这只狗在第一次手术后201天死亡。
