Summary

Ethmoidal hematoma in horses can cause breathing issues and nasal discharge. Surgical removal (sinusotomy) showed recurrence in some cases, requiring further intervention.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Equine Surgery
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Ethmoidal hematoma is a condition affecting horses.
  • Clinical signs include stertorous breathing and nasal discharge.
  • Diagnosis relies on physical, endoscopic, radiographic, and histologic findings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report the diagnosis and surgical management of ethmoidal hematoma in horses.
  • To evaluate the long-term outcomes and recurrence rates after sinusotomy and lesion extirpation.

Main Methods:

  • Diagnosis in 9 horses involved physical examination, endoscopy, radiography, and histology.
  • All horses underwent sinusotomy and surgical removal of the ethmoidal hematoma.
  • Follow-up examinations were conducted 15 to 104 months post-surgery.

Main Results:

  • Recurrence of ethmoidal hematoma was observed in 3 of the 9 horses.
  • One horse developed contralateral ethmoidal hematoma.
  • One horse experienced both recurrence and contralateral involvement, necessitating repeat surgeries.

Conclusions:

  • Sinusotomy and extirpation are primary treatments for equine ethmoidal hematoma.
  • A significant rate of recurrence and contralateral spread exists.
  • Long-term monitoring is crucial for horses treated for ethmoidal hematoma.
