Se presentan 25 casos de inestabilidad/malformación cervícal caudal diagnosticados desde febrero de 1981 hasta junio de 1988. Diecisiete son machos y ocho hembras, de edades comprendidas entre los seis meses y los ocho años. El 70% son dobermann, un 7% rottweiler, un 7% gran danés y un 16% lo componían otras razas. Se describen la fisiopatología, los signos clínicos y el examen radiológico y se exponen los tratamientos conservadores y las técnicas quirúrgicas empleadas, siendo la laminectomía dorsal continua entre c4-T1 con injerto de grasa la técnica defendida con mayor entusiasmo por los autores. * Twenty five cases diagnosed of caudal cervical vertebral instability/malformation since february 1981 till june 1988 are presented.
