Abstract:Observations  A left sided Horner's syndrome (ptosis, prolapse of the nictitating membrane and miosis) was observed in a 4-year-old female, neutered Beagle dog after epidural injection of 0.22 mL kg−1 ropivacaine (0.75%) in 0.01 mL kg−1 of saline during isoflurane anaesthesia. Clinical signs disappeared gradually and resolved completely 4 hours and 10 minutes after injection.
Conclusions  The epidural injection of 0.22 mL kg−1 ropivacaine (0.75%) in 0.01 mL kg−1 of saline during isoflurane anaesthesia caused unilateral (left) Horner's syndrome in a 4-year-old female, neutered Beagle dog.
Keywords:complications  epidural  ropivacaine  unilateral Horner's syndrome
