Lesions of natural Helichrysum argyrosphaerum poisoning were studied in eight sheep and one goat. Light microscopic examination revealed widespread, bilaterally symmetrical status spongiosis of the white matter of the brain consistently present in the subependymal area adjacent to the lateral ventricles, cerebellar peduncles, and brain stem in all animals. In three animals, the ultrastructural finding of intramyelinic vacuolation due to splitting of the myelin lamellae at the intraperiod lines indicated myelin edema. There was also mild distension of perivascular and extracellular spaces in the severely affected areas. Significant changes were absent in neurons, glial cells, axons, or blood vessel walls. Myelin edema associated with degeneration and loss of axons and myelin and astrocytic gliosis was present in the intraorbital and intracranial portions of the optic nerves. In the intracanalicular portions of the nerves in three animals that were studied, more chronic lesions consisting of fibrosis and atrophy of the nerve suggested that the optic neuropathy follows compression of the nerve in the optic canal as a result of myelin edema. The toxic principle of the plant also caused a degenerative retinopathy in five animals. The essential histopathologic change was degeneration and loss of the photoreceptor outer segments predominantly in the nontapetal retina. These retinal lesions were associated with hyperplasia and hypertrophy and with migration of the pigmented epithelium, focal retinal separation, and depletion and loss of the nuclear layers.
