Abstract

Intervertebral Disk Diseases (IVDD) in French Bulldog breed dogs show up to 86.2% among dogs with neurological disorders. The object of the study was 39 French bu11dog dogs aged 5-11 years of both sexes. The experimental group consisted of 17 dogs with simi1ar signs of neuro1ogica1 disorders, the control group consisted of 22 c1inica11y hea1thy dogs. C1inica1 and biochemica1 b1ood tests were conducted in French bu11-dogs with IVDDI type. A significant (at p < 0.05) increase in the va1ues of ALT, G1dg, creatinine, hemog1obin, erythrocytes, and p1ate1ets was shown in comparison with hea1thy dogs. However, a11 indicators were practica11y within the reference ranges. To make an accurate diagnosis of the dogs, Mie-1o-CT and MRI were performed. Based on the CT scan, it was found that in 7 patients there is extrusion of the disk substance at the 1eve1 of the cervica1 vertebrae with a spina1 cana1 over1ap of 20-30%. These patients underwent decompression of the spina1 cord using the Ventra1 S1ot method, the postoperative period was uneventfu1. According to the resu1ts of a repeated examination of neurological deficit in these dogs was not detected. Nine French bu11dogs were diagnosed with 1esions in the 1umbar spina1 cord and underwent a 1aminectomy. However, on1y 6 out of 9 dogs had surgica1 intervention to e1iminate spina1 cord compression and remove the pain response. Postoperative physiotherapy courses were conducted in two patients, as a resu1t of which positive dynamics were observed, but comp1ete recovery of motor activity did not occur. Further, surgica1 treatment of spina1 cord decompression was carried out. Surgica1 treatment of I-type diseases of intervertebra1 discs did not a1ways 1ead to fu11 restoration of functions, long-term rehabi1itation was required, which had positive aspects in the dynamics of the condition, but in some cases it cou1d not be achieved.
