Congenital Malformations: Neuropathology
usually subtle
brain development for dum-dums
from neural plate to neural tube
tube becomes ventricles
crest cells become, like, the brain
etiology
primary
spontaneous
inherited
single point mutation
chromosome abnormalities
secondary
exposure to teratogens
intrauterine
toxic chemicals from drugs or plants
hyperthermia
ionizing radiation
vitamin deficiencies
hypothyroidism
Schmallberg virus
variety of massive brain malformations
emerging
diagnostic strategy
clinical signs shortly after birth
often not progressing
possible improvement
may be visible at external exam
types
meningeal melanosis
incidental
neural tube closure defects

encephaloclastic defects
porencaphaly
hydraencephaly
caudal fossa and spinal cord defects
cerebellar hypoplasia
feline parvovirus
infected queen during pregnancy
granule cells targeted and killed
