Veterinary Clinics of North America - Equine Practice

Many urogenital procedures of the mare are commonly performed with the mare standing. Ovariectomy via colpotomy was described as early as 1903, and the Caslick vulvoplasty was first described in 1937. As knowledge expands and instruments become more specialized, techniques will improve. With the introduction of laparoscopy, clinicians have not only been able to improve the previously described urogenital procedures but also to devise new procedures. This article describes multiple surgeries of the female urogenital tract, all of which can be performed with the mare standing, and describes a variety of approaches to some portions of the female urogenital tract.

Knowledge of immunodeficiencies is crucial to neonatal medicine, in that they predispose to sepsis in the newborn and neonatal foal, as well as recurrent infections in older foals. The most common immunodeficiency in newborn and neonatal foals is failure of passive transfer, which is an example of an acquired immunodeficiency. Congenital or developmental immunodeficiencies may be transient or permanent, and can either affect the cell-mediated or humoral arms of immunity, and in some cases both. Affected foals often have chronic or recurrent respiratory or gastrointestinal infections, often with opportunistic pathogens.

This article describes the rationale behind the use of systemically administered lidocaine as an analgesic. The analgesic efficacy of intravenously administered lidocaine is well documented by studies in human patients and laboratory animals. The mechanism by which systemically administered lidocaine produces analgesia is uncertain but is thought to include action at sodium, calcium, and potassium channels and the N-methyl-D-aspartate acid receptor. In addition, the anti-inflammatory actions of lidocaine are important in producing analgesia because inflammatory mediators augment neuronal excitability. The available studies of systemically administered lidocaine in horses provide evidence for the analgesic and anesthetic effects of intravenous lidocaine in this species.

Barbiturate overdose as a method of euthanasia is becoming unacceptable. This has made alternative methods of euthanasia very important. Gunshot or captive bolt euthanasia is among methods that are acceptable, but they may not be esthetically acceptable. This has led to the use of other methods of euthanasia. Inducing anesthesia prior to euthanasia offers an easier method of control. Adjunctive techniques using intravenous potassium or magnesium salts administered intravenously and intracardiac administration of potassium chloride or intrathecal lidocaine offer alternatives that work well and are more environmentally safer than barbiturates. Pithing and exsanguination are also environmentally safer but may not be as esthetically acceptable as the other methods.

Endocrine diseases, such as equine metabolic syndrome and pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction, are common in domesticated horse populations, and the frequency with which these diseases are encountered and managed by equine veterinary practitioners is expected to increase as the population ages. As clinicians learn more about the effects of these diseases on equine reproductive physiology and efficiency (including effects on reproductive seasonality, ovulation efficiency, implantation, early pregnancy loss, duration of pregnancy, and lactation), strategies and guidelines for improving fertility in affected animals continue to evolve. It is hoped that further research will establish these recommendations more firmly.

Muscle biopsy is often required to provide a definitive diagnosis for neuromuscular disorders and can be performed using open surgical or percutaneous needle biopsy techniques. Fresh samples that are subsequently frozen in the laboratory are preferred by laboratories engaged in research, whereas formalin-fixed muscle is processed by diagnostic laboratories with specialized tinctorial and immunohistochemical techniques. Interpretation by an experienced histopathologist, combined with the signalment, history, and clinical input, is essential for establishing a diagnosis. This article outlines best practices to select, obtain, and ship a muscle sample to a laboratory and a summary of laboratory techniques.

Thoracic neoplasia often presents with generalized and nonspecific clinical signs and should be considered as a differential especially when patients are nonresponsive to therapeutic intervention for more common differential diagnoses of respiratory disease (such as equine asthma) and where there is evidence thoracic and/or abdominal effusion upon examination. Antemortem diagnosis can be challenging and working closely with a pathologist to differentiate the respective neoplasia is helpful. Early recognition and appropriate management of thoracic neoplasia are vital for patient welfare as rapid disease progression can be relatively quick, and/or the relatively advanced stage of disease in which these patients frequently present.

Tumors of the Respiratory Tract

There are a number of unusual tumors in the horse. Gross tumor characteristics, anatomical location, and signalment may assist with identification. Clinical pathology is often unrewarding with non-specific findings, while fine needle aspirates may not obtain sufficient tissue material to confirm a diagnosis. Although regular staining of biopsy material may be sufficient, immunohistochemistry markers may be required, especially in less differentiated tumors. The prognosis is dependent on the type, location, tumor size as well as on metastatic spread. A selection of unusual and rare tumors that the clinician is more likely to encounter is discussed.
