| 英文描述 | Chronic ingestion over a period of 4-6 weeks of the African plant TRACHYANDRA LAXA VAR. LAXA or the Australian plant T. DIVARICATA (branched onion weed) can cause a progressive ascending paresis and paralysis. There is prominent neuronal and mild extraneuronal pigmentation with a pigment that appears to be lipofuscin. Most common in hot, dry months, and lactating, young, and active animals appear to be at high risk, probably due to higher nutrient requirements leading to ingestion of more of the plants. Dx by dietary history and histology. No specific treatment is described, and the disease appears to be irreversible. |
