Sažetak

Degenerative intervertebral disc disease is the most common neurological disorder affecting the canine thoracolumbar spine. The clinical records of 104 dogs with thoracolumbar disc disease treated by decompressive surgery at the Clinic of Surgery, Orthopaedics and Ophthalmology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Zagreb during a seven-year period (January 2011 through July 2018) were reviewed. The aim of this study was to compare the chondrodystrophic and nonchondodystrophic type according to breed, sex, age, body weight, extruded disc material site, neurological deficiency and operative findings. Most dogs had an acute clinical picture with a high degree of neurological deficiency. The French Bulldog breed was the most common chondrodystrophic type of breed for thoracolumbar syndrome, while the German Shepherd was the most non-chondrodystrophic type of breed. Thoracolumbar syndrome was more common in males. Disk extrusion in both types of breeds appeared in the T12-T13 and T13-L1 intervertebral space. Recovery data is known for 61.53% of patients, of which 70.44% of patients achieved successful recovery. All dogs were treated by bilateral minihemilaminectomy by the same surgeon. In 30% of patients, irrespective of myelography findings, the disk material was observed on both sides of the intervertebral space, making bilateral mini-hemilaminectomy advisable in the treatment of dogs with breast-syndrome syndrome. These results will be used in future studies of thoracolumbar syndrome, and will also contribute to its diagnosis and treatment.
