    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Equine Surgery
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Choledocholithiasis, the presence of gallstones in the bile duct, is a rare condition in horses.
    • Bile duct obstruction can lead to significant gastrointestinal and metabolic disturbances in equids.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report a case of choledocholithiasis in a five-year-old gelding.
    • To describe the surgical management and outcome of bile duct obstruction in this equine patient.

    Main Methods:

    • Diagnosis was based on laboratory findings and histopathological examination.
    • Surgical intervention was performed to address the bile duct obstruction.

    Main Results:

    • The five-year-old gelding was diagnosed with choledocholithiasis.

  • Postoperative recovery was favorable, with the horse achieving normal clinical and clinicopathological status by 39 days.

    • Conclusions:

    • Surgical relief of choledocholithiasis is a viable treatment option in horses.
    • Prompt diagnosis and surgical intervention can lead to successful outcomes in equine bile duct obstruction cases.
