Abstract
Summary The spinal cord meninges of normal dogs were incised laterally as deep as the subarachnoid space. This was performed via a left-sided hemilamiuectomy of lumbar vertebrae 1 to 3 and a right-sided hemilaminectomy of lumbar vertebrae 4 to 6. The results indicate that a hemilaminectomy and incision of the meninges in normal dogs result in only mild, temporary neurological deficits. This suggests the possibility that spinal cord oedema in dogs could be surgically treated by incision of the meninges without damage to the spinal cord.
