Abstract

The patient was presented to a veterinary hospital with acute progressive onset of non-ambulatory tetraparesis. An appropriate diagnosis of acute idiopathic polyradiculoneuritis was made and suitable supportive nursing care implemented. The patient was later diagnosed with pneumonia as a consequence of prolonged recumbency, requiring further nursing interventions. Treatment with intravenous human immunoglobulin therapy was subsequently initiated and the patient improved but was sadly later euthanased.
