Abstract | A 4-month-old female-entire Vizsla dog was referred for progressive seizure activity, vomiting, lethargy, inappetence, and neck pain. CT revealed focal inflammation, a calvarial osseous defect, a possible foreign body within the brain, and associated vasogenic edema. A cerebrospinal fluid tap revealed marked septic neutrophilic pleocytosis. MRI findings supported diagnosis of a 1.7 cm foreign body within the brain. A right rostrotentorial craniectomy was performed, and intraparenchymal grass seed was removed in its entirety via intraoperative ultrasound guidance. The patient was discharged 2 days postoperatively, and long-term follow-up revealed no abnormal neurological signs. |
