  • Title: Vascular malformations and angiomatous lesions in horses: a review of 10 cases.
    Author: Platt H.
    Journal: Equine Vet J; 1987 Nov; 19(6):500-4. PubMed ID: 3504759.
    Abstract:
    Vascular malformations and angiomas are rather uncommon in horses and the literature concerning these lesions is reviewed. The pathology is described in 10 additional cases. These lesions were classified as arteriovenous malformation (one case), haemangiomas (six cases), 'proliferative angiomas' (two cases) and lymphangioma (one case). The haemangiomas and lymphangioma were probably hamartomatous in origin. Both cases of 'proliferative angioma' developed in aged animals and their pathogenesis was uncertain. More information is needed on the natural history and behaviour of lesions of this type.
