An Atypical Case of Polioencephalomalicia
1971
Polioencephalomalacia (PEM) is a signi ficant feedlot cattle problem here in the midwest. Differentiation of this disease from other diseases that produce central nervous signs such as acute lead poison ing (ALP), thromboembolic meningoence phalomyelitis, hypomagnesemia, and rabies is important to the practitioner as he has to decide on the best course of therapy for recovery. (2,3) Because the following atypi cal case of PEM looked so much like ALP to the group of clinicians (bovine clinici ans, toxicologists, and pathologists) who observed it, we feel it is worthwhile to re port.
