    Diskospondylitis, a spinal infection in dogs, often presents with pain and fever. Radiography is essential for diagnosing this under-recognized condition, which can affect vertebral bodies and intervertebral discs.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Canine Pathology
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Background:

    • Diskospondylitis is an under-recognized spinal infection in dogs.
    • Limited documentation exists in veterinary literature, hindering diagnosis and treatment.
    • This study aims to elucidate key aspects of canine diskospondylitis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide comprehensive information on canine diskospondylitis.
    • To highlight clinical signs, diagnostic methods, and radiographic findings.
    • To improve recognition and understanding of this disease in veterinary practice.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective study analyzing radiographic and clinical data.
    • Inclusion of 27 dogs diagnosed with diskospondylitis.

  • Focus on radiographic confirmation of lesions.

    • Main Results:

    • Diskospondylitis was confirmed radiographically in 27 dogs.
    • Common clinical signs included pain, inappetence, and recurrent fever.
    • Radiography revealed characteristic lesions involving vertebral bodies, end plates, and intervertebral discs, with associated myelopathy in some cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Diskospondylitis is a significant spinal disease in dogs requiring radiographic diagnosis.
    • Clinical signs can be non-specific, emphasizing the need for advanced imaging.
    • Early and accurate diagnosis through radiography is crucial for effective management.
