MAHNE, Arnold T.; JANSE VAN RENSBURG, Driene e HEWETSON, Michael. Ileal hypertrophy and associated true diverticulum as a cause of colic in a horse. J. S. Afr. Vet. Assoc. [online]. 2017, vol.88, n.1, pp.1-5. ISSN 2224-9435. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/jsava.v88i0.1439.
A 4-year-old Thoroughbred gelding underwent an explorative celiotomy for a suspected small intestinal obstruction. During surgery, an impacted diverticulum of the ileum was suspected, necessitating a jejunocaecostomy. The owner opted for euthanasia. On post-mortem examination and histopathology, a true diverticulum on the mesenteric side of the ileum, with ileal hypertrophy, was diagnosed.
