Progressive Erblindung und Nierenerkrankung in Zusammenhang mit einer periartikulären Hyperostose bei einem männlichen Mohrenmaki (Eulemur macaco macaco) im Tierpark Berlin

Until now there were no publications about periarticular hyperostosis in black lemurs at an European zoo. The author described a case of this disease connected with a growing blindness and a progressive renal disfunction in a male black lemur at Tierpark Berlin. Clinical symptoms, diagnosis and therapy are explained in detail.
