CLINICAL CASE OF SCHIFF-SHERRINGTON SYNDROME IN GERMAN SHEPHERD: DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT

Journal Title: Ukrainian Journal of Veterinary Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 293

Abstract

As a result of spinal cord injury, the spinal cord and its cerebral cortex become affected. Quite often, nerve roots are involved in the process, in which hemorrhages, ruptures, foci with necrosis can occur, which are caused by disorders of the liquor and blood flow. The complexity of the diagnosis lies in neurological disorders in spinal cord trauma, which often does not correlate with the morphological changes that are detected during an operative intervention. Since a partial or complete rupture of the spinal cord leads to clear clinical signs with a pronounced neurologic deficit, timely diagnosis and provision of qualified care can reduce the likelihood of developing secondary signs of complication in the form of myelomalacia and reduce the excessive impact of vertebral body slices with a fracture to the spinal cord. An integrated approach to a patient with a neurological status as a result of spinal trauma can contribute to the gradual recovery of the general condition of the animal for 4-8 weeks.
