Abstract

Preparation of a logical list of differential diagnoses is a key step in the diagnostic approach for dogs and cats with spinal disorders. This article presents the main differential diagnoses for patients with spinal diseases grouped according to lesion localization. The differential diagnoses are divided primarily according to the 4 classic spinal cord divisions, but other important spinal subdivisions are also discussed.
