    Hyperlipaemia in ponies is a serious condition causing inappetance, somnolence, and oedema. This study highlights its occurrence in pregnant and lactating mares, linking it to nutritional plane challenges.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Equine Health
    • Animal Physiology

    Background:

    • Hyperlipaemia is a metabolic disorder characterized by elevated lipid levels in the blood.
    • Understanding the clinical presentation and pathological findings of hyperlipaemia in ponies is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

    Observation:

    • Presents case histories and clinical findings of 15 ponies diagnosed with hyperlipaemia.
    • Predominant clinical signs included hyperlipidaemia, inappetance, somnolence, muscle fasciculation, diarrhoea, and ventral oedema.

    Findings:

    • Post-mortem examinations revealed extensive lipidosis and vascular thrombosis with secondary changes in 12 ponies.
    • The condition was most prevalent in late-pregnant and early-lactating mares during summer months.

    Implications:

    • Suggests a falling nutritional plane, despite high nutrient demands, may initiate hyperlipaemia in susceptible equines.
    • Highlights the need for careful nutritional management in pregnant and lactating mares to prevent this condition.
