CT of the stifles and LS junction –
Moderate incompletely bridging new bone is noted at the ventral aspect of the vertebral endplates L7/S1. The vertebral endplates present multifocal osteolysis with peripheral sclerosis. The lumbosacral disc reveals dorsal protrusion with mild obliteration of the ventral epidural space.
Neuroforaminal stenosis is a possible underlying cause of the unilateral lameness
reported. Clarification requires MRI, which has been performed already.
