Case Report

Cerebellar Infarcts in Two Dogs Diagnosed With Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Jason M. Berg, DVM, Diplomate ACVIM (Neurology) and Richard J. Joseph, DVM, Diplomate ACVIM (Neurology)

From the County Animal Specialty Group, 1574 Central Park Avenue, Yonkers, New York 10710.

Two dogs presented with severe, peracute-onset, neurological signs. Neuroanatomical localization was cerebellovestibular. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed and revealed focal, wedge-shaped lesions in the cerebellum. Diagnosis of cerebellar infarctions was made based on peracute-onset, clinical signs, MRI, and outcome as well as ancillary diagnostic information. Both dogs recovered completely. Cerebellar infarction should be included in the differential of any dog with peracute-onset, central cerebellovestibular signs regardless of severity of clinical signs. Outcome was excellent in these dogs.
