Myelopathy in Holstein x Gir calves in Brazil

The central nervous system (CNS) is susceptible to a variety of insults, including infectious, toxicologic, and genetic disorders. Inherited disorders can be evident at birth or might not be apparent until later in the 1st year of life or beyond. Most neurological disorders are recognized in the dog and cat with fewer examples in farm animals.(1) This paper contains the 1st report of the clinical and pathological features of a degenerative myelopathy in Holstein X Gir crossbred calves in Brazil.
