Epistaxis and Intradural-Extramedullary Haemorrhage in a Dog With Steroid Responsive Meningitis-Arteritis.
Vet Med Sci
January 2025
Veterinary Specialists Scotland, Part of Linnaeus Veterinary Ltd., Livingston, UK.
Article Synopsis
- A 2-year-old female Golden Retriever exhibited sudden non-ambulatory paraparesis after initially unremarkable examinations, prompting further investigation.
- MRI revealed an intradural-extramedullary mass causing significant spinal cord compression, indicating a hemorrhagic process, and CSF analysis showed signs of inflammation.
- Following surgery for decompression, the dog showed gradual improvement and regained mobility, and the diagnosis of steroid responsive meningitis-arteritis (SRMA) was supported by clinical findings and treatment response.
Disseminated Encephalomyelitis and Myositis in a 3-Month-Old Cane Corso Puppy.

Indiana Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA.
Article Synopsis
- A 3-month-old Cane Corso puppy suffered from severe symptoms, including hindlimb lameness and eventual paralysis, leading to its critical condition at the Purdue Veterinary Hospital.
- Blood tests revealed significant abnormalities, including high levels of creatine kinase, and the puppy tragically went into cardiac arrest shortly after diagnostics.
- Necropsy findings showed widespread muscle degeneration and inflammation, along with protozoal cysts confirmed by elevated antibody levels, highlighting disseminated neosporosis as a rare but critical cause of ascending paresis in young dogs.
Surface electromyography of the vastus lateralis and gluteus medius muscles in post-operative T3-L3 hemilaminectomy dogs: a prospective controlled observational study.

Department of Comparative, Diagnostic & Population Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, United States.
Objective: The objective of this study was to determine if surface electromyography (sEMG) demonstrates differences in muscle activation between normal and dogs recovering from spinal cord injury due to intervertebral disk extrusion.
Animals: Two groups of client-owned small-breed chondrodysplastic-type dogs were tested. Group 1 consisted of seven ambulatory paraparetic dogs that had undergone a hemilaminectomy procedure in the T3-L3 region for intervertebral disk extrusion 1 month prior.

Unlabelled: Acute transverse myelitis (ATM) is an inflammatory disorder caused by many etiologies, from postinfectious to autoimmune. Rarely, ATM cases have been reported after both COVID-19 infection and COVID-19 vaccination. We described our experience with ATM after COVID-19 infection and conducted a literature review.

Background: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is the most common cause of acute flaccid paralysis worldwide and can be classified into electrophysiological subtypes and clinical variants.
Objective: This study aimed to compare the frequency of the sural-sparing pattern (SSP) in subtypes and variants of GBS.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed clinical and electrophysiological data of 171 patients with GBS hospitalized in public and private hospitals of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, between 1994 and 2018; all cases were followed up by the same neurologist in a reference neurology center.
