Maritato, Karl C. | Colon, Jose A. | Mauterer, John V.
A 10-year-old domestic longhair cat was presented for acute non-ambulatory tetraparesis. Clinicopathologic diagnostics revealed no abnormalities. Cervical myelogram revealed an extradural compressive lesion consistent with intervertebral disc disease of the C2–C3 intervertebral disc space. Ventral slot decompression confirmed the presence of extruded intervertebral disc material into the vertebral canal of the C2–C3 intervertebral space. The patient succumbed to cardiorespiratory arrest 3 days postoperatively.
