| 中文描述 | 阿拉斯加雪橇犬(哈士奇)因為亞急性壞死性腦病,而產生神經方面的問題。症狀多半在出生後6個月顯現。推測可能是由於粒線體代謝問題造成的。亞急性壞死性腦病,在阿拉斯加雪橇犬中會遺傳,特徵為雙側的丘腦空洞現象。MRI有助於診斷。 |
| 英文描述 | Alaskan Husky dogs have developed neurologic disease due to necrotizing encephalopathy. Clinical signs often start at about 6 months of age. It was hypothesized that this disease was due to a metabolic defect, presumably at the level of the mitochondria. Necrotizing encephalopathy appears to be hereditary in the Alaskan Husky, and is characterized by bilateral thalamic cavitation; MRI can be useful for diagnosis. |
