  • Title: Ejaculatory failure associated with aortic-iliac thrombosis in two stallions.
    Author: McDonnell SM, Love CC, Martin BB, Reef VB, Kenney RM.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1992 Apr 01; 200(7):954-7. PubMed ID: 1577649.
    Abstract:
    Two mature breeding stallions were evaluated because of specific ejaculatory dysfunction, and each was found to have aortic-iliac thrombosis occluding 60 to 70% of the aortic lumen. In each case, the stallion had strong libido, normal mounting, and vigorous initial thrusting. With continued exertion, thrusting became weak and dismount was awkward. Treatment aimed at maximizing sexual arousal before mounting and reducing hind limb pain and exertion during breeding allowed these stallions to continue breeding. A program of gradually increasing daily exercise also was associated with improved breeding performance during subsequent breeding seasons. In cases of specific ejaculatory dysfunction, aortic-iliac disease should be included among the differential diagnoses.
