Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of those non-invasive proceedings, which allows to measure at the same time the morphologic and functional specificities of the brain, therefore it can help to understand the causes of epilepsy. As far as the authors know, in the literature there is no such...

The aim of this work was to document the value of morphometric analysis in quantifying neuronal loss in canine cerebellar degenerative disease. Measurements of the cerebellar cell populations in a dog affected by severe cortico-cerebellar degeneration (CCD) were compared with those of an...

A form of hereditary cerebellar ataxia has recently been described in the Norwegian Buhund dog breed. This study aimed to identify the genetic cause of the disease. Whole-genome sequencing of two Norwegian Buhund siblings diagnosed with progressive cerebellar ataxia was carried out, and sequences...

An unusual form of cerebellocortical degeneration called cerebellar granuloprival degeneration was diagnosed in a four-month-old Chihuahua. The dog had a two-week history of progressive signs of cerebellar dysfunction, including a wide-based stance, intention tremors and bilateral absence of menace ...

Cerebellar abiotrophy was observed in a female American Staffordshire terrier aged 6 years. The bitch showed tremors, weakness, ataxia as main clinical signs at the time of visit the Veterinary Hospital (FVET-UdelaR), and these signs were progressed slowly for 6 months. The dog was euthanatized due ...

Background: Neonatal cerebellar cortical degeneration is a neurodegenerative disease described in several canine breeds including the Beagle. Affected Beagles are unable to ambulate normally from the onset of walking and the main pathological finding includes Purkinje cell loss with swollen...

This paper is aimed to present a corpus callosum and cerebellar anomaly with pathological findings in a 40-day-old, male, Golden Retriever puppy. It was stated that the dog rapidly deteriorated and died. On necropsy, after opening the skull, it was observed that the brain and cerebellum hemispheres ...

In this case report, a nine-month-old male Azawakh dog was observed for ataxia, uncoordinated movements, and difficulties in walking and standing, intensive head tremors, trouble evacuating and eating. It was determined to have mild cerebellar hypoplasia in MR imaging and symptomatic treatment was...

Background: The ingestion of grapes or raisins has been reported to cause acute kidney injury (AKI) in dogs, with a clinical picture dominated by early gastrointestinal signs and rapidly developing uremia. Ataxia is mentioned in a few reports, but not further characterized. Objectives: To evaluate...

This case study presents a unique transient postural vestibular syndrome in three dogs. The transient postural symptoms present as pronounced vestibulo-cerebellar signs after altering the position of the head. Magnetic resonance imaging findings of the brain suggest caudal cerebellar hypoplasia,...
