【 摘 要 】

References(15)Supplementary materials(1)A 10-day-old, Japanese Black, female calf had shown astasia since just after birth. Focalsymmetrical periventricular malacic lesions of the cerebrum and suppurative arthritis ofthe left hip joint were observed in macroscopic examination. Histologically, the cerebrallesions were confirmed as periventricular leukomalacia (PVL). The location andhistological features of the lesions were similar to PVL in humans, caused by neonatalischemia/hypovolemia. This is the first report of PVL in a neonatal calf.
