    Surgical intervention for chronic intestinal intussusception in horses, involving the jejunum and ileum, resulted in successful outcomes for both cases. Intermittent colic was the primary clinical sign observed in these equine patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Equine Surgery
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Chronic intestinal intussusception is a rare condition in horses.
    • It can lead to significant gastrointestinal distress and potentially life-threatening complications.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of chronic intestinal intussusception were documented in horses.
    • One case involved the jejunum, while the other affected the ileum.
    • The predominant clinical sign in both horses was intermittent colic.

    Findings:

    • Surgical exploration and intervention were performed on both affected horses.
    • Both surgical procedures were successful, leading to positive outcomes.
    • The affected intestinal segments were the jejunum and ileum.
