  • Title: A protracted case of cryptococcal nasal granuloma in a stallion.
    Author: Roberts MC, Sutton RH, Lovell DK.
    Journal: Aust Vet J; 1981 Jun; 57(6):287-91. PubMed ID: 7316894.
    Abstract:
    A 13-year-old Standardbred stallion presented with a unilateral mucopurulent nasal discharge and airway obstruction was found to have an extensive cryptococcal nasal granuloma. Treatment was not attempted. The stallion was destroyed 26 months later having completed 2 successful breeding seasons. The granuloma had gradually increased in size and almost completely occupied the left nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. It was characterised histologically by fibrous and myxomatous tissue and masses of yeasts. A cryptococcal granuloma found within the wall of the jejunum could represent evidence of dissemination, and organisms were seen within alveoli, bronchioles and the intestinal lumen.
