86 Intervertebral Disk Herniation

Today we are joined by Elsa Beltran one of our fabulous lecturers in small animal neurology and neurosurgery here at the RVC. We are in the studio, and Brian is on the whistles and faders, so hopefully the audio quality is good from the start. Today we discuss the different types of intervertebral disk extrusion/protrusion in dogs and their presentation, diagnosis, treatment and recovery. It might be an idea to listen to Podcast on the Rule of Six (37) regarding clinical reasoning in canine spinal disease. We hope that you enjoy.
