  • Title: Ataxia due to a vertebral haemangiosarcoma in a horse.
    Author: Newton-Clarke MJ, Guffoy MR, Dykes NL, Divers TJ.
    Journal: Vet Rec; 1994 Aug 20; 135(8):182-4. PubMed ID: 7992476.
    Abstract:
    A haemangiosarcoma in a horse resulted in ataxia affecting all four legs, a low head carriage and a reluctance to flex the neck. Ancillary diagnostic procedures included the analysis of cerebrospinal fluid, standing lateral cervical radiographs and a myelogram. Post mortem a tumour was found which involved the body of the second cervical vertebra and the associated hypaxial muscles, with secondary intravertebral extradural infiltration and focal compressive myelopathy. A histological examination showed that the tumour was a haemangiosarcoma.
