Tumoral calcinosis in the horse. This study examines a set of cases relating to tumoral calcinosis in horses. This condition, often found in larger dog breeds and humans, is marked by a calcareous, firm mass […]
Repair of a defect in the bladder of a foal. Repair of a rupture of the bladder in a foal
has been reported in Australia by Bain (1954).
The condition is well recognised in veterinary
literature and been described by Leader (1952),
Du Plessis (1958), Darbishire (1961) and Kealy
(1961). The usual case, as reported by Leader
(1952), is that of a dorsal tear. The present
paper describes a case with several variations
from those previously reported.
Phenothiazine poisoning in a thoroughbred horse. A 12-month-old thoroughbred horse, after being treated with 30 g. of micronized phenothiazine, developed an acute haemolytic anaemia characterized by Heinz-body formation. Elevation of serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, isocitric dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase and blood urea nitrogen also occurred. The colt's clinical condition improved after receiving blood transfusions, fluids, antibiotics and corticosteroids. After 10 weeks, the haematological and biochemical picture returned to normal.

Traumatic duodenitis with subsequent thrombosis of the posterior vena cava in a horse. The possible sequelae of traumatic perforation
of the reticulum of cattle are described by Blood
and Henderson (1963). Traumatic splenitis and
hepatitis following perforation of the reticulum
have also been described in detail (Blood and
Hutchins 1955).
Frank (1959) described and illustrated both
thrombus formation and stricture of the posterior
vena cava following traumatic reticulitis with subsequent abscess formation. The proximity of the
abscess to the posterior vena cava apparently
caused erosion of the vessel wall, and the inflammatory reaction initiated the formation of a
