Volvulus nodosus of the small intestine: Differences in foals and adults

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Volvulus nodosus is a strangulating lesion of the small intestine described only in foals and in just one case in older horses. Huskamp et al. (1982, 1998) described the pathophysiology of volvulus nodosus in foals, but to date, there is no description of the pathophysiology of volvulus nodosus in adults.

Summary Fecaliths are a recognised cause of non‐strangulating colon obstruction in horses. Although they more commonly obstruct the small colon, they can also lodge in the pelvic flexure, requiring enterotomy for removal.

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.
