Steroid-responsive meningitis-arteritis in a dog- a case report
This paper describes in detail the case of steroid-responsive meningitis-arteritis (SRMA) in a dog. The dog was presented at the Clinic for Internal Diseases, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Zagreb due to high fever with anorexia that lasted for five days, reluctance to move, stiffness and defensive behaviour that responded only moderately to antibiotics and combination of steroid and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs by the referring veterinarian. The dog was fully clinically and neurologically examined and revealed fever and extreme neck pain. Complete laboratory workup and urinalysis were included. The dog underwent CSF sampling and analysis. The diagnosis of steroid-responsive meningitis-arteritis was established. Adequate therapy was instituted which resulted in significant clinical improvement.
