Abstract
Spondyloarthropathy is a form of arthritis that
affects spine, especially sacroiliac joint leading to the severe, chronic pain
and over time, can cause complete fusion of the sacroiliac (SI) joint. The
present report describes a case of spondyloarthropathy in a captive female
brown bear (Ursus arctos) from
Sarajevo zoo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Morphological inspection and radiograph
of the macerated sacral and coxal bone specimen was performed. Both
examinations showed complete bilateral symmetrical fusion of the sacral and coxal
bone with syndesmophyte formation. Animals residing in zoos are kept under
specific conditions which lead to inactivity and possible mobility problems
caused by some sort of spondyloarthropathy.
