  • Title: [Leukoencephalomalacia in two horses--moldy corn poisoning in Germany?].
    Author: Wohlsein P, Hinrichs U, Brandt K, Kurtz H.
    Journal: Tierarztl Prax; 1995 Dec; 23(6):582-7. PubMed ID: 8585077.
    Abstract:
    Moldy corn poisoning is a mycotoxicosis of Fusarium sp. causing a disease termed equine leukoencephalomalacia (ELEM). This article reviews the literature on ELEM and describes two cases with clinical signs and morphological findings comparable with fusariotoxicosis. Since in both cases neither a fungus nor a toxin proof were performed, the different causes of leukoencephalomalacia in horses are discussed.
