Cerebral Cortical Atrophy, Horse.
Atrophy is seen with a variety of slowly progressive neurologic diseases in which there is a progressive loss of neurons. These diseases include cerebral cortical atrophy of aging and ceroid-lipofuscinosis. The characteristic gross lesions are narrowing of the cerebral gyri with a consequent widening of the sulci.
