An Arabian foal, which was recumbent for 4 days, had signs of extensor rigidity of the thoracic limbs and hypotonic paralysis of the pelvic limbs. Survey radiography revealed a lesion at T15, with radiographic impression of a compression fracture or a hemivertebra. Postmortem examination revealed a fracture at T15. Clinical and pathologic findings in this case were compatible with the Schiff-Sherrington syndrome, which is characterized by thoracic limb extensor hypertonia associated with paraplegia from acute thoracolumbar trauma.
一匹阿拉伯马驹俯卧了4天，出现胸肢伸肌强直和盆腔肢低张性麻痹的症状。X线透视检查显示T15处有病变，影像学诊断为压缩性骨折或半椎体畸形。尸检发现T15处骨折。该病例的临床和病理表现与希夫-谢灵顿综合征相符，其特征为急性胸腰段创伤导致截瘫并伴有胸肢伸肌张力亢进。
