Скачать или смотреть Fibrocartilaginous Embolism (FCE) in Dogs || Dr. Kornberg

SEVN veterinary neurologist Dr. Kornberg covers fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE) in dogs, which occurs when a piece of fibrocartilage from an intervertebral disc breaks out into the bloodstream and wedges itself into a blood vessel, blocking blood flow to the spinal cord.

FCE is often referred to as a spinal cord stroke. Your dog may suddenly cry out during activity and experience weakness or even paralysis on one side of the body. It can happen to any dog, but spinal cord strokes are frequently seen in middle-aged, large-breed dogs and miniature schnauzers.

Summary of Clinical Signs
1. Sudden onset lameness, often during activity
2. Non-painful (may cry out at the time of injury)
3. One side of the body more affected than the other
4. Signs do not worsen after the first few hours
