Summary
This review covers equine oral and sinonasal tumors, detailing their types, prevalence, and characteristics. Diagnosis involves clinical findings, imaging (radiography, endoscopy, CT), and histopathology, with treatment and prognosis discussed.
Area of Science:
- Veterinary Medicine
- Oncology
- Equine Science
Background:
- Equine oral and sinonasal tumors present a diagnostic challenge.
- Understanding tumor types, prevalence, and characteristics is crucial for effective management.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review equine non-neoplastic and neoplastic oral and sinonasal tumors.
- To describe their prevalence, characteristics, diagnostic findings, treatments, and prognosis.
Main Methods:
- Literature review of equine oral and sinonasal growths.
- Description of clinical and ancillary diagnostic findings, including radiography, endoscopy, and computed tomography.
- Emphasis on histopathological confirmation for diagnosis.
Main Results:
- Detailed overview of various equine oral and sinonasal tumor types.
- Information on prevalence and general characteristics of these growths.
- Summary of diagnostic aids and treatment options.
Conclusions:
- Accurate diagnosis of equine oral and sinonasal tumors relies on a combination of clinical, imaging, and histopathological data.
- This review provides a comprehensive resource for veterinarians managing these conditions.

01:27Cranial Bones: Lateral View
2.1K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

01:24Nose and Nasal Cavity
1.9K
The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...

01:03Olfactory Receptors: Location and Structure
9.1K
The process of olfaction, also known as the sense of smell, is a sophisticated chemical response system. The specialized sensory neurons that facilitate this process, known as olfactory receptor neurons, are situated in an upper segment of the nasal cavity, known as the olfactory epithelium. Olfactory sensory neurons are bipolar, with their dendrites extending from the epithelium's apex into the mucus that lines the nasal cavity. Airborne molecules, when inhaled, traverse the olfactory...
