Article Synopsis
- Melanomas in horses, particularly gray ones over 16 years old, are common, but a case is noted with a non-gray horse (a 16-year-old Wielkopolski gelding) developing issues.
- The horse initially had a keratoma removed, but after regrowth and continued lameness, further surgeries were done leading to different histopathological results.
- Eventually, a third examination revealed a low-differentiated malignant neoplasm with high malignancy, indicating a severe progression of the horse's condition.
This paper describes a case of partial lack of the mesocolon in a 7-month-old colt. The foal was referred to the hospital with clinical signs of severe abdominal distension of a few hours duration. Because analgesics did not relieve pain, the foal remained uncomfortable, and distension of the abdomen increased; an exploratory laparotomy was performed under general anaesthesia in dorsal recumbency.
