Endemic regions for<jats:italic>G. paralysans<\/jats:italic>mainly include<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">C<\/jats:styled-content>hile and<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">A<\/jats:styled-content>rgentina. The ante mortem diagnosis of gurltiosis is difficult and based primarily on neurological signs, epidemiological factors, and the exclusion of other causes of feline myelopathies. The purpose of this retrospective case series was to describe clinical, imaging, and pathologic characteristics in nine domestic cats naturally infected with<jats:italic>G. paralysans<\/jats:italic>. Imaging tests included radiography, myelography, computed tomographic myelography (myelo\u2010<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CT<\/jats:styled-content>), and magnetic resonance imaging (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MRI<\/jats:styled-content>). Neurological signs included paraparesis, paraplegia, pelvic limb ataxia and proprioceptive deficits, pelvic limb tremors, lumbosacral hyperesthesia, and tail trembling or atony. Complete blood count findings included a decrease in the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration value in eight cats. Eosinophilia in peripheral blood was observed in three cats, and thrombocytopenia was observed in three cats. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis revealed mononuclear pleocytosis in five cases. Myelo\u2010<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CT<\/jats:styled-content>showed diffuse enlargement of the spinal cord at the midthoracic, lumbar, and sacral regions in all cats. Magnetic resonance image findings in the thoracic and lumbar region demonstrated multiple small nodular areas of<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">T<\/jats:styled-content>2 hyperintensity in the periphery of the spinal cord parenchyma. Localized intraparenchymal areas of increased<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">T<\/jats:styled-content>2 intensity were also observed in the thoracolumbar spinal cord and lumbosacral conus medullaris. In conclusion,<jats:italic>G. paralysans<\/jats:italic>should be considered as a differential diagnosis for domestic cats in endemic regions that have this combination of clinical and imaging characteristics.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/vru.12026","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,3,12]],"date-time":"2013-03-12T16:43:02Z","timestamp":1363106582000},"page":"237-244","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["CLINICAL, IMAGING, AND PATHOLOGIC CHARACTERISTICS OF<i>GURLTIA PARALYSANS<\/i>MYELOPATHY IN DOMESTIC CATS FROM CHILE"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"54","author":[{"given":"Marcelo","family":"Mieres","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Instituto de Ciencias Cl\u00ednicas Veterinarias"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marcelo A.","family":"G\u00f3mez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Farmacolog\u00eda y Morfofisiolog\u00eda"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carla","family":"Lillo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Farmacolog\u00eda y Morfofisiolog\u00eda"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marcela A.","family":"Rojas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Farmacolog\u00eda y Morfofisiolog\u00eda"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Manuel","family":"Moroni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Patolog\u00eda Animal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pamela","family":"Mu\u00f1oz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Patolog\u00eda Animal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gerardo","family":"Acosta\u2010Jamett","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Medicina Preventiva Veterinaria Universidad Austral de Chile Valdivia Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ricardo","family":"Wiegand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Instituto de Ciencias Cl\u00ednicas Veterinarias"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,3,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9780470376805"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vetpar.2010.02.039"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vetpar.2011.08.035"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_1","volume-title":"Primera descripci\u00f3n en Argentina de Gurltia paralysans en un felino dom\u00e9stico.
