Risk factors for equine strangulating lipoma colic: An international, case–control study

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Obstruction by strangulating lipoma (SLO) is one of the most common causes of small intestinal strangulation in horses and is fatal without surgery. Current knowledge of risk factors for SLO is limited to horse signalment features. To date, other risk factors have not been investigated.
