“…In people, several types of lipomatosis are reported, based on the location and the clinical manifestations (Murphey et al, 2004). In horses, there are few case reports describing lipomatosis, affecting either small or large intestinal mesentery (de Bont et al, 2013; Henry & Yamini, 1995; Linnenkohl et al, 2013), or the musculoskeletal apparatus (Bristol & Fubini, 1984; Hammer et al, 2002; Lepage et al, 1993). In one horse, lipomatosis affecting both the colonic mesentery and the neck musculature was described (Morales Briceño et al, 2015).…”
