Tumors of intracranial nerve root in dogıesticated animals have been
infrequently reported in dogs (LA), cattle (3), and horse (z). These intracranial tumors observed were neurofibromas in dogs, neurilemmomas in.
cattle, and in one horse.
This paper describes a neoplasm which arose from the nervi glossopharngicus, vagus, accessorius and hypoglossus.
Clinically: A six year-old, male gorden setter dog was admİtted to the
clinic with a tentatiye diagnosis .of encephalitis and was under observation for
one and a half months. The owner stated that the dog was vomiting, coughing
and had sjgns of intermİttent incoordination on both hind legs. The animal
leaned against objects, apparently in an attempt to support itself. No circling
movemets was observed, but there was a tendency to the left while he was
walking. Unilateral mydriasis, and absence of pupillary reflex to light of the
left eye were observed. There was slight lowering of the left side of the lower
lips.
