Acquired syringomyelia was diagnosed in an 11-year-old Fox Terrier with progressive paresis in the left pelvic limb. Myelography and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed an intramedullary lesion involving the left dorsolateral portion of the spinal cord at the level of L-2 and L-3 vertebrae. Clinical signs improved after surgical syringotomy. Microscopic evaluation of a biopsy specimen from the cyst wall did not establish a definitive histologic diagnosis. The cyst was decreased in size on magnetic resonance imaging 7 months later.

The author presents an account on different causes of ophthalmological torticollis and rotational nystagmus in paresis of the trochlear nerve and abducent nerve, in Duan's syndrome I or acute Brown's syndrome or in bilateral ptosis combined with paresis of the levators. He recommends different surgical techniques and prefers combined operations performed with a single anaesthesia in pareses of the levators, the abducent nerve and trochlear nerve. For release of the horizontal direct muscles within the framework of paretic affections of the eye he recommends adjustable elongations as described by Gonin-Hollwich. In ptosis he uses frontotarsal suspension as described by Fox, using lyophilized fasciae. The paper contains also a family history of congenital fibrous syndrome.

A 9-year-old neutered male Wire Fox Terrier presented with an 1-month history of hindlimb paresis. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a contrast-enhanced mass at the level of the L2 vertebral canal. The dog became paraplegic with no deep perception of the hindlimbs, and the mass was surgically removed. The histopathological diagnosis was of a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST). The dog suffered a relapse of right hindlimb ataxia at 225 days after the surgery. The dog died 434 days after the surgery. Necropsy found a large mass in the abdominal cavity invading from the L2-nerve. This is the first report of MPNST invading the abdominal cavity through the nerve root.
