Abstract

A 3-year-old male Scimitar-horned oryx presented for evaluation of an acutely deformed right horn with right head tilt and right facial pain. Computed tomographic evaluation revealed an increased volume of central fluid/soft tissue attenuation with gas-attenuating foci within the right horn. The right horn was amputated at the right horn base. Imaging and histopathologic features were consistent with emphysematous osteomyelitis. Following treatment, the patient returned to normal behavior. This is the first veterinary report describing the computed tomographic features of a horn infection in a Scimitar-horned oryx.

一只雄性弯刀角大羚羊（Oryx dammah）严重角感染的计算机断层扫描特征。

一只 3 岁的雄性弯刀角大羚羊因右侧角急性畸形、右头倾斜和右面部疼痛前来就诊。计算机断层扫描评估显示，右角中央液体/软组织衰减体积增大，并伴有气体衰减灶。右侧角被从右侧角基部截除。影像学和组织病理学特征与气肿性骨髓炎一致。治疗后，患者恢复了正常行为。这是第一份描述弯刀角大羚羊角感染计算机断层扫描特征的兽医报告。
