Liquor Cerebrospinalis in Veterinary Medicine

Abstract

The knowledge in veterinary medicine of animal fluid, compared to the human, is still in its beginning. This paper attempts to stimulate further testing and reduce the unjustified reservations of most practitioners toward the extraction of cerebrospinal fluid by presenting a short compilation of current knowledge. Experience was gained by means of several hundred spinal taps of various animal species (horse, cattle, sheep, goat, swine, dog, cat, rabbit). Most of the findings were confirmed by later neurohistological tests.
