Summary

The clinical and radiological findings of three related Miniature Poodles with multiple enchondromatosis (Ollier’s disease) are presented. Persisting, in part ossified growth plate cartilage foci were found bilaterally in the humerus, radius, ulna, femur, tibia and fibula of each dog and in one dog in some metacarpal and metatarsal bones. The ribs and many vertebral bodies were also affected. There was evidently no bone formation in the sternebrae. All three dogs first attracted attention at the ages of four to six months, with spontaneous bilateral femoral neck fractures. The mode of inheritance of the condition is not yet clear, but based on the known pedigree data a dominant effect appears unlikely.

Key words

Ollier’s disease - Persistent segments of growth plate cartilage - Clinical signs - Radiographical findings - Heredity
