  • Title: Teratocarcinoma of the ovary in a mare.
    Author: Frazer GS, Robertson JT, Boyce RW.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1988 Oct 15; 193(8):953-5. PubMed ID: 3192478.
    Abstract:
    A 5-year-old Appaloosa mare had a history of mild intermittent abdominal discomfort and clinical signs that were suggestive of intestinal obstruction. Palpation per rectum revealed a large mass attached to the left uterine horn, with smaller masses extending dorsally and cranially and causing constriction of the rectum. At necropsy, numerous multilobulated masses were observed in the abdominal cavity and several nodules were seen in the lungs. The left ovary was large and contained both cartilage and hairlike material. Sections from all masses had similar histologic features and confirmed the tentative diagnosis of teratocarcinoma.
