  • Title: Intra-abdominal hemorrhage associated with a granulosa-thecal cell neoplasm in a mare.
    Author: Gatewood DM, Douglass JP, Cox JH, DeBowes RM, Kennedy GA.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1990 Jun 01; 196(11):1827-8. PubMed ID: 2161811.
    Abstract:
    A 9-year-old American Saddlebred mare was referred because of abdominal distention and signs of abdominal pain. Copious peritoneal fluid obtained by abdominocentesis appeared to be frank blood. Rectal and ultrasonographic evaluation of the abdomen revealed a large mass at the distal tip of the right uterine horn. The mare was euthanatized and necropsied and the mass was determined to be a granulosa-thecal cell neoplasm. The most common clinical sign of granulosa-thecal cell neoplasm is infertility or abnormal sexual behavior. Hemoperitoneum is infrequently associated with neoplasms in horses.
