Resumo
In 2008, the Federal Council of Veterinary Medicine prohibited the use of nonsurgical
methods for caudectomy through Resolution No. 877. However, owners still
use unacceptable techniques to promote caudectomy and no veterinarian’s
orientations. This fact associated with the absence of sanitary measures is related to
economic losses and sheep mortality. The aim of this study is to relate a picture of
post caudectomy suppurative myelitis due to the use of inappropriate management
techniques. A crossbred sheep, semi launched, female, three month’s old showed
progressive paresis of the hinder members. An anatomopathological exam was
conducted and it was possible to detect purulent exudation in the medullary canal
from the lumbar to the sacral region and malacia of the sacral portion. The microscopy showed a pronounced neutrophil infiltration in the arachnoid space and
medullar spinal cord. The anatomopathological data confirmed the post caudectomy
suppurative myelitis by using rubber ring.
