  • Title: Naturally occurring nasal obstructions in 11 sheep.
    Author: Rings DM, Rojko J.
    Journal: Cornell Vet; 1985 Apr; 75(2):269-76. PubMed ID: 3987295.
    Abstract:
    Eleven adult sheep of various breeds were examined due to inspiratory dyspnea. Fiberoptic examinations conducted in 8 of the sheep revealed masses to be obstructing the nasal passages. Identification of the masses through histopathologic examination showed 7 to be adenocarcinomas, 1 a papillary adenoma, and 4 were cases of glandular hyperplasia with lymphoplasmacytic infiltration (nasal polyps). One ewe had both an adenocarcinoma and a polyp. Surgical removal of the masses was attempted on 6 of the sheep. Four of the 6 surgically-treated sheep have survived between 2 mo. - 2 years without recurrence of the obstruction.
