• became dehydrated after weaning
|
behavior/neurological
nervous system
• severe with a destruction of the cerebral cortices
|
• severe with a destruction of the cerebral cortices
|
• the neuropil was frequently distended and torn
|
• the hippocampus, thalamus, midbrain, cerebellum, and medualla were generally preserved, although they were compressed
|
• developed within the first few days of life
|
• the ependymal lining of the lateral ventricles was disrupted at multiple sites
|
• became progressively dilated and were filled with bloody cerebrospinal fluid
|
• contained abundant electron lucent cells and an irregular and disorganized microvillus border
|
• moderately dilated while the fourth ventricle appeared normal
|
• much of the cerebral cortex was destroyed except for a thin rim composed of neural tissue and meningeal membranes
• necrosis accompanied the cortical atrophy
|
craniofacial
