우측 후지가 점진적인 파행을 보이는 11년령의 수컷 시츄견이 내원하였다. 신체검사 결과 부정형의 종괴가 촉진 되었다. 방사선 촬영에서는 균질한 연부 조직성 밀도를 보였으며, 초음파 검사에서는 혼합성 에코를 보이는 경계가 명료한 특징을 갖고 있었다. MRI 검사에서는 주변 근육과 비교한 결과 유사 또는 강한 비균질성 신호강도를 보였다. 종괴는 주로 대퇴부 주변에 형성되어 있었으며, 일부는 골반뼈 폐쇄구멍을 통해 골반강내에서 직장의 변위를 일으키고 있음이 확인할 수 있었다. 병리조직 검사 결과 중간엽 세포와 상피세포로 구성된 활막육종으로 진단되었다. 종괴는 외과적으로 적출하였으나, 지속적인 근위축으로 있었으며 인해 파행은 개선되지 않았다. 적출 후 6개월에 종괴가 형성됨이 확인되었으며 점진적으로 그 크기 비대해져 10개월이 되는 시점에서 견주의 요청으로 안락사 하였다. MRI는 활막육종 형성됨이 확인되었으며 이에 대한 특징적인 소견은 내포하고 있지 않지만 종괴의 수술적 적출과 종괴의 범위를 확인하는데 있어 유용한 정보를 제공함을 알 수 있었다.

4개월 된 수컷 진도 견에서 좌측 후지 파행이 발생하였다. 방사선 검사에서 양측 경골 견인 골단 아래 작은 골편이 관찰되었으나, 견인 골단의 변위는 없었다. 그 후 양측 경골 조면 부위의 골밀도는 방사선 투과성에서 비투과성으로 변화하였다. 좌측 경골은 수술 후 회복되었으나, 우측 경골은 보존적 처치로 자가 치료되었다. 본 환자는 경골조면의 부분 견열골절로 진단되었으며, 이는 개에서 'Osgood-Schlatter disease'로 불려져 왔던 질환이다. 이 증례는 환자의 경골조면 부분 견열골절의 순차적인 방사선학적 영상 변화에 대한 유용한 임상적 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

A 7-year-old dog weighing 3.9 kg visited the hospital with symptoms of inability to stand and quadriparesis. There were seizure symptoms 2 months before admission to the hospital, and the symptoms of stiffness and rigidity appeared. Radiographs showed normal vertebrae in cervical vertebral column. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) were performed immediately to diagnose vertebral lameness. As a result of the CT, it was possible to observe the fracture of the odontoid process of the axis, and the exact location of the damage was identified. The odontoid process was fractured and separated from the body of the 2^nd cervical vertebra (axis), and fragment of the process was observed inside the vertebral arch of the first cervical vertebra (atlas), and the body of the axis was lifted to the dorsal side. The MRI examination reflected the CT findings and confirmed severe spinal cord compression due to the fracture of the odontoid process. The patient was applied by neck brace and medical management including Mycophenolate mofetil administration was performed. The patient was able to move legs and tail after 2 weeks, and was able to voluntarily defecate, urinate and stand up after 4 weeks of administration.

A 10-year-old, spayed female, Doberman Pinscher dog presented with right forelimb lameness. On physical examination, painful reaction and crepitation were present at the right shoulder. Radiographic evaluation of the shoulder revealed nothing remarkable. On the ultrasonography of the right shoulder joint, 2 small echogenic masses accompanied by reverberation artifacts were observed in the right biceps tendon near its origin at the supraglenoid tuberosity. Based on these findings, we suspected biceps calcifying tendinopathy. Clinical signs resolved intermittently after administration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. This study described the ultrasonographic findings of calcifying biceps brachii tendinopathy which is an unusual finding in dogs.

A three-year-old male jindo with generalized skin lesions (including seborrhea, hyperk- eratosis, alopecia, papules, and ecchymoses), pruritus lymph node enlargement, and fever was brought to Veterinary Teaching Hospital, College of Veterinary Medicine, Chungbuk National Uni- versity. There were no laboratory findings for parasites and fungi in the hair and skin But, the com- plete blood counts (CBC) showed leukocytosis and severe cosinophilia, It was suspected to be an inflammatory and allergic dermatitis. Thus, prednisoIone (0.5 mg/kg PO, BID for 1 week) and ampi- cillin (10 mg/kg PO, BID for 1 week given. One week later, pruritus and ecchymoses were reduced. These treatments were repeated for 7 day again. Three months later, the dog was presented again due to the relapse and exacerbation of the clinical signs. The signs were as follows; severe pru- ritus, vesicobullous skin lesions, anorexia, emaciation, lameness, and welling of carpal joints that showed inflammatory skin lesion and draining of synovia-like fluid. The values of WBC counts were returned to normal ranges. In contrast, eosinophilia was still observed. Coombs test for patient RBC and serum were negative. Hypoalbuminemia (2.5g/dl) was shown by serum chemistry. The uri- nalysis revealed and presence of leukocytes. Luxation finding of right radial carpal joint by polyarthritis was shown in radiography of affected joints.Lupus eryhematosus(LE) cells also appeared in peripheral blood and synovial fluid of affected joints. Definitely, antinuclear antibody (ANA) of patient serum using feline peripheral blood mononuclear cells was detected by all immu- nofluorescence. Based on these findings such as sedum ANA-Positive. major signs (skin disease, non- erosive polyarthritis with soft tissue swelling. and proteinuria), minor signs (fever), and LE cell-pos- itive, a diagnosis of systemic lupus crythematosus (SLE) was mad\ulcorner in this dog. The dog with SLE was administered with Pre(2.0 mg/kg PO, BID for first 4 week and then QOD) to inhibit the production of autoantibodies and with ampicillin (10 mg/kg PO, BID for first 4 weeks and then QOD) to prevent the secondary infection. The condition of this dog was monitored every 2 weeks by physical examinations, radiography, CBC, serum chemistry and urinalyais. At 8th week of treat- ment, the state of SLE evaluated by physical examinations and laboratory findings was markedly improved except for proteinura.
