  • Title: [Diagnosis of stomach carcinoma in the horse].
    Author: Deegen E, Venner M.
    Journal: Dtsch Tierarztl Wochenschr; 2000 Dec; 107(12):472-6. PubMed ID: 11155515.
    Abstract:
    In 10 horses, which were referred to the clinic with the suspicion of disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, gastroscopy revealed a gastric tumour. In ten cases the diagnosis of a squamous cell carcinoma was made on the basis of histology of biopsies or autopsy. The tumour always derived from the non-glandulary mucosa. The horses showed various clinical symptoms. All patients had a hypoalbuminemia and a hyperglobulinemia in the serum electrophoresis. This suggests that a gastric tumour can be suspected intra-vitam even without gastroscopy of the patient.
