Equine small intestinal angiomatosis.

Equine small intestinal angiomatosis. Can Vet J. 2020 Nov;61(11):1159-1161 Authors: Zhang M, Dickinson RM Abstract Multiple red, raised nodules multifocally distributed along the serosal surface of the normal and the nonviable jejunum were identified in a 24-year-old neutered male horse undergoing surgery for removal of the strangulating lipoma around the jejunum. Histologically, these nodules consisted of many significantly and variably dilated, blood-filled vascular channels lined by a single layer of flattened, well-differentiated endothelial cells with occasional thrombi within a mildly thickened fibrous stroma. A diagnosis of intestinal angiomatosis was proposed. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the second report of small intestinal angiomatosis in a horse. PMID: 33149352 [PubMed - in process]
