Article Synopsis
- * Out of the dogs examined, 12.4% exhibited MRI features of PC, primarily affecting regions like the piriform lobe and hippocampus, with a higher occurrence in dogs experiencing cluster seizures or status epilepticus.
- * The results indicated that dogs with unknown-origin epilepsy showed a greater likelihood of having PC compared to those with structural or idiopathic epilepsy, and PC were more common when the time between the last seizure and MRI was shorter.
Background: Disseminated mycoses other than aspergillosis are infrequently reported in dogs.
Case Report: A 4-year-old female Labrador retriever was evaluated because of hyperthermia, cough and intermittent lameness. Computed tomography showed a soft tissue mass in the cranioventral mediastinum, severe left and central tracheobronchial lymphadenopathy, and moderate bilateral pleural effusion.
Objective: To report the surgical treatment and outcome of six bulldogs with spina bifida (SB) and meningocele (MC) or meningomyelocele (MMC).
Study Design: Case series.
Animals: Five French bulldogs and one English bulldog with MC or MMC.
MRI is considered gold standard for the diagnosis of presumptive acute hydrated non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusions (AHNCNPE). This retrospective study describes the myelographic findings in dogs with AHNCNPE diagnosed by low-field MRI and their association with neurological grade, need of surgical decompression and outcome. Forty-two myelographies (21 dogs with presumptive AHNCNPE, 21 dogs with Hansen type I disc disease herniation) were blindly evaluated.

Hypothesis/objectives: To describe the clinical features, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics, and outcomes of dogs with cranial MC and MEC.
Animals: Twenty-two client-owned dogs diagnosed with cranial MC or MEC.
