  • Title: [Thrombectomy of the descending aorta in the horse].
    Author: Knezevic PF, Fessl L.
    Journal: Tierarztl Prax Suppl; 1985; 1():94-100. PubMed ID: 4012786.
    Abstract:
    Thrombosis of the aorta as the cause of intermittent claudication in the horse appears to be rare. Two cases out of about 10 000 horses 1973-1984 are discussed. There are various views on its aetiology, whereby haemodynamic factors and disturbances of coagulation have been mentioned as well as parasites. For treatment surgical methods should be explored in addition to medical procedures. History, diagnosis and the attempt of an aortic thrombectomy in a 12 year old thoroughbred mare are described in this paper. A standardbred stallion was left untreated on owners wish.
