Abstract

This case report details the clinical presentation, diagnosis, management and prognosis of paroxysmal dyskinesia (PD) in four small‐breed dogs, each weighing under 6 kg: A 7‐year‐old spayed female Pomeranian, an 8‐year‐old female mixed breed, a 1‐year‐old female Pomeranian and a 9‐year‐old castrated male Poodle. These dogs were referred to our hospital due to movement disorders. Diagnosis was facilitated by video recordings of the episodes, assessing motor activity, consciousness, episode duration, any pre‐ or post‐episodic behaviour as well as the presence of autonomic signs. Magnetic resonance imaging conducted on two of the dogs returned unremarkable results. Treatment trials included a gluten‐free diet for all four dogs, with two also receiving acetazolamide. This intervention led to a decrease in the frequency of abnormal movement in all patients. Our findings suggest that PD in dogs can be effectively diagnosed through detailed symptom description using videos and questionnaires. Furthermore, once diagnosed, a combination of nutritional and medical management can be beneficial.

四只小型犬疑似阵发性运动障碍:临床表现、诊断、处理和预后
本病例报告详细介绍了四只体重不足 6 千克的小型犬阵发性运动障碍(PD)的临床表现、诊断、治疗和预后:它们分别是一只 7 岁的绝育雌性博美犬、一只 8 岁的雌性混血犬、一只 1 岁的雌性博美犬和一只 9 岁的阉割雄性贵宾犬。这些狗都是因为运动障碍而被转诊到我们医院的。通过对发作过程进行录像,评估运动活动、意识、发作持续时间、发作前或发作后的行为以及是否存在自主神经体征,有助于诊断。对其中两只狗进行的磁共振成像检查结果无异常。治疗试验包括为所有四只狗提供无麸质饮食,其中两只狗还接受了乙酰唑胺治疗。这种干预措施降低了所有患者的异常运动频率。我们的研究结果表明,通过使用视频和问卷对症状进行详细描述,可以有效诊断出狗的帕金森病。此外,一旦确诊,结合营养和药物治疗也是有益的。

期刊介绍: Veterinary Medicine and Science is the peer-reviewed journal for rapid dissemination of research in all areas of veterinary medicine and science. The journal aims to serve the research community by providing a vehicle for authors wishing to publish interesting and high quality work in both fundamental and clinical veterinary medicine and science. Veterinary Medicine and Science publishes original research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and research methods papers, along with invited editorials and commentaries. Original research papers must report well-conducted research with conclusions supported by the data presented in the paper. We aim to be a truly global forum for high-quality research in veterinary medicine and science, and believe that the best research should be published and made widely accessible as quickly as possible. Veterinary Medicine and Science publishes papers submitted directly to the journal and those referred from a select group of prestigious journals published by Wiley-Blackwell. Veterinary Medicine and Science is a Wiley Open Access journal, one of a new series of peer-reviewed titles publishing quality research with speed and efficiency.
