Abstract

Occipital dysplasias in five dogs showing various neurologic signs of unknown origin were diagnosed with clinical examination and skull radiographic assessment at this university teaching hospital. The severities of occipital dysplasia were Grade III in four dogs and Grade II in one dog. Major clinical signs were ataxia and convulsion. In skull radiographs, there were dorsal extents of the foramen magnum reached nuchal crest in all cases. Also, hydrocephalus or vertebral malformation was complicated in three cases.
