  • Title: Caecocaecal and caecocolic intussusceptions associated with larval cyathostomosis in four young horses.
    Author: Mair TS, Sutton DG, Love S.
    Journal: Equine Vet J Suppl; 2000 Jun; (32):77-80. PubMed ID: 11202389.
    Abstract:
    This report describes the clinical and pathological features of 4 horses affected by caecocaecal or caecocolic intussusceptions associated with larval cyathostomiasis. In each case, there was clinical and/or pathological evidence of concurrent larval cyathostomosis. They all demonstrated variable signs including diarrhoea, pyrexia, weight loss and subcutaneous oedema and cyathostome larvae were identified in the faeces of 3 of the horses. These cases highlight the need to consider caecal intussusceptions as a possible complication in horses affected by larval cyathostomosis, especially where signs of abdominal pain are severe or persistent.
