Abstract
Neurological deficiencies in dogs, which manifest themselves in the form of paresis and paralysis of the limbs, often cause compression of the spinal cord due to a violation of blood circulation and the formation of edema. In order to diagnose this pathology, MRI is used to study the lumbar spine, which allows you to accurately determine the location of brain damage and to correctly select the method of surgical intervention. The latter is performed within 24-48 hours after the preparation and analysis of the animal's condition according to a complete neurological examination. At the same time, the administration of glucocorticosteroid and symptomatic drugs is underway. The use of mini-hemilamenectomy and foraminectomy in surgical interventions is advisable because they are less invasive in comparison with other methods of operative access to intervertebral discs. Conscientious implementation of recommendations in the postoperative period with the restriction of the animal in motion and the use of conservative treatment increases the ability to restore the functioning of the musculoskeletal system by 50 %.
