  • Title: Chronic enteritis associated with the malabsorption and protein-losing enteropathy in the horse.
    Author: Meuten DJ, Butler DG, Thomson GW, Lumsden JH.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1978 Feb 01; 172(3):326-33. PubMed ID: 621180.
    Abstract:
    Chronic granulomatous enteritis associated with weight loss and hypoproteinemia was identified in 2 horses. Both horses continued to have normally formed feces. Malabsorption of carbohydrate and lipid, with concomitant gastrointestinal protein loss was demonstrated in 1 case. One horse was treated symptomatically and gained 108 kg. In both cases, principal gastrointestinal lesions were partial to total villus atrophy and transmural mononuclear leukocytosis, with lymphocytes and histiocytes predominating. The cause of the condition was not identified in either case.
