    Author: Markel MD, Meagher DM, Richardson DW.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1988 Feb 01; 192(3):358-9. PubMed ID: 3356572.
    Abstract:
    Colopexy of the left ventral colon to the abdominal wall was performed in 4 horses with recurrence of large-colon displacement or volvulus. Horses were discharged between 5 and 27 days after surgery. At follow-up evaluation (mean, 10.5 months; range, 7 to 13 months) of the horses, none had recurrence of signs of abdominal pain, and all had normal body weight. Three horses were exercised regularly; signs of abdominal pain were not observed.
