Neurologic disease is a common presentation of domestic ferrets () with infectious, neoplastic, and traumatic etiologies documented. Adrenocortical neoplasia is also well documented in domestic ferrets, with metastatic lesions rarely described. This case report describes an abnormal presentation of adrenocortical adenocarcinoma with myxoid differentiation and subsequent metastasis to the spinal cord and vertebral bodies, resulting in hind limb paraplegia in an adult spayed female ferret.
神经疾病是家养雪貂常见的临床表现,有文献记载其病因包括感染性、肿瘤性和创伤性。肾上腺皮质肿瘤在家养雪貂中也有充分记载,但很少描述有转移性病变。本病例报告描述了一例具有黏液样分化的肾上腺皮质腺癌的异常表现,随后转移至脊髓和椎体,导致一只成年绝育雌性雪貂后肢截瘫。
