    Author: Nieth J, Köhler K, Wehrend A.
    Journal: Tierarztl Prax Ausg G Grosstiere Nutztiere; 2017 Aug 10; 45(4):237-243. PubMed ID: 28368069.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of an innate hyperplastic goiter in foals as well as the sonographic evaluation of the hyperplastic gland are presented. One foal displayed skeletal deformities in the form of a mandibular prognathism and forelimb contractures in addition to the swollen thyroid gland. Because of a poor prognosis, the animal was euthanized. The second foal was premature and displayed respiratory signs. Under symptomatic therapy, the goiter regressed within a few weeks.
