Abstract

Vertebral malformations have been reported previously from a wide range of reptile taxa. Kyphosis refers to an abnormally excessive convex curvature of the spine in the thoracic and sacral regions, while if the deviation affects the lateral plane of the spinal column, the condition is known as scoliosis. In some cases, these two types of malformation can be combined in the same animal, known as kyphoscoliosis (Garín-Barrio et al., 2011). It appears that kyphosis mainly affects species adapted to aquatic environments (e.g. turtles and crocodiles; Tucker, 1997; Boede & Sogbe, 2000; Tucker et al., 2007), while scoliosis is more common in terrestrial species (snakes and lizards; Grogan, 1976; Simbotwe, 1983; Frutos et al., 2006). Reports of kyphosis (and kyphoscoliosis) from wild lizard populations have increased lately (e.g. Liolaemus koslowskyi (Iguandiae) Avila et al. (2013); Sceloporus torquatus (Phrynosomatidae) Pérez-Delgadillo et al. (2015); Norops sericeus (Dactyloidae) Domínguez-De la Riva and Carbajal-Márquez (2016); Sceloporus vandenburgianus (Phrynosomatidae) Valdez-Villavicencio et al., (2016); Stenocercus guentheri (Tropiduridae) Ramírez-Jaramillo, (2018); Marisora brachypoda (Scinidae) Arrivillaga

成年雄性cyrens岩蜥后凸畸形1例

椎体畸形已经报道了以前从广泛的爬行动物类群。脊柱后凸是指脊柱在胸椎和骶骨区域异常过度的凸曲率，而如果偏差影响脊柱的外侧平面，则称为脊柱侧凸。在某些情况下，这两种类型的畸形可以在同一动物中合并，称为后凸脊柱侧凸(Garín-Barrio et al.， 2011)。似乎后凸主要影响适应水生环境的物种(例如海龟和鳄鱼;塔克,1997;Boede & Sogbe, 2000;Tucker et al.， 2007)，而脊柱侧弯在陆生物种中更为常见(蛇和蜥蜴;甘,1976;Simbotwe, 1983;Frutos et al.， 2006)。野生蜥蜴种群的后凸(和后凸脊柱侧凸)报告最近有所增加(例如Liolaemus koslowskyi(鬣蜥科)Avila等人(2013);(2015);长孔虫(长孔虫科);长爪蟾科Domínguez-De la Riva和Carbajal-Márquez (2016);Valdez-Villavicencio等人，(2016);革氏窄尾绦虫(棘虫科)Ramírez-Jaramillo， (2018);短足水母(水母科
