Abstract

A ten year old castrated male domestic short haired cat, was presented with clinical signs related to the cauda equina. The results of the neurological examination, diagnostic procedures, and clinical course are presented. At necropsy a glioblastoma of the caudal spinal cord was present. The difficulties in distinguishing between neoplasms arising in the cauda equina and the caudal spinal cord are discussed. A comparative discussion of the cauda equina syndrome is presented.
