  • Title: Uterine adenocarcinoma in a Przewalski's wild horse (Equus ferus przewalskii).
    Author: Thompson R, Armién AG, Rasmussen JM, Wolf TM.
    Journal: J Zoo Wildl Med; 2014 Jun; 45(2):441-5. PubMed ID: 25000717.
    Abstract:
    A 25-yr-old, nulliparous, female Przewalski's wild horse (Equus ferus przewalskii) with a history of pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction and recent onset of serosanguinous vaginal discharge was euthanized after a period of lethargy and inappetance. Postmortem examination confirmed an infiltrative uterine adenocarcinoma, which is an uncommon neoplasia in equids. Reproductive disease is significant in this species as they are considered endangered by IUCN. Reproductive soundness and success are paramount to conservation efforts.
