The conformation of spinal arachnoid diverticula (SAD) and their clinical implications are poorly characterized in dogs. This retrospective cross-sectional study describes different SAD conformations in dogs and aims to identify if there is an associ...

Dropped-head syndrome in a dog secondary to myopathy of the cervical extensor muscles (2023)
Journal Article
Grapes, N., Llabres-Diaz, F., Vicent, N., De Stefani, A., & De Decker, S. (2023). Dropped-head syndrome in a dog secondary to myopathy of the cervical extensor muscles. Vet Record Case Reports, https://doi.org/10.1002/vrc2.654

A 4-year-old, male, entire Newfoundland was presented for investigation of an acute onset cervical ventroflexion and pyrexia, 4 days following a hip replacement surgery. Neurological examination confirmed prominent cervical ventroflexion characterise... Read More about Dropped-head syndrome in a dog secondary to myopathy of the cervical extensor muscles.

Canine insulinomas and their presumed metastases are most conspicuous in the late arterial phase in a triple arterial phase CT protocol (2023)
Journal Article
Skarbek, A., Fouriez-Lablée, V., Dirrig, H., & Llabres-Diaz, F. (2023). Canine insulinomas and their presumed metastases are most conspicuous in the late arterial phase in a triple arterial phase CT protocol. Veterinary Radiology and Ultrasound, https://doi.org/10.1111/vru.13278

Avid arterial enhancement is the commonly described characteristic of canine insulinomas in contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT). However, this finding is also reported as inconsistent. The main aim of this study was to investigate in detai...

A case series of 37 surgically managed, paraplegic, deep pain negative, French bulldogs with thoracolumbar intervertebral disc extrusion from two English referral centres (2023)
Journal Article
Jones, G., Cherubini, G., Llabres-Diaz, F., Caine, A., & De Stefani, A. (in press). A case series of 37 surgically managed, paraplegic, deep pain negative, French bulldogs with thoracolumbar intervertebral disc extrusion from two English referral centres. Veterinary Record Open, https://doi.org/10.1002/vro2.61

Background: Thoracolumbar intervertebral disc extrusions (TL-IVDE) are a common spinal disorder in dogs, especially within chondrodystrophic breeds. Loss of deep nociception is a well-documented negative prognostic indicator in dogs with TL-IVDE, wi...
