Hemangiosarcoma in 11 Young Horses

Abstract: Hemangiosarcoma is a rare neoplasm of horses and hemangiosarcoma in young horses might behave differently than in mature horses. The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of hemangiosarcoma occurring in horses < or = 3 years of age. Medical records from 1982 to 2004 were searched for horses < or = 3 years of age with a histopathologic diagnosis of hemangiosarcoma. Eleven records were identified. Thoroughbred and Thoroughbred crosses predominated. Age ranged from 9 days to 3 years. All horse… Show more

“…There are several reports of vertebral and spinal cord compression due to haemangiosarcoma (Kiupel et al 2000) without evidence of disseminated disease (Newton-Clarke et al 1994;Berry 1999;MacGillivray et al 2003). Although there are reports of soft tissue haemangiosarcomas infiltrating the osseous tissue in distal limbs (Johns et al 2005) and axial skeleton (Sweeney and Gillette 1989), to the authors' knowledge, a primary osseous haemangiosarcoma in the long bone of a horse has not been reported previously.…”

“…No breed or sex predilection has been reported (Southwood et al 2000). Haemangiosarcomas may be occur as focal masses, masses with local infiltration, internal masses restricted to one organ or disseminated neoplasia affecting multiple organs (Southwood et al 2000;MacGillivray et al 2003;Johns et al 2005;Ladd et al 2005) and generally present with clinical signs referable to the body system affected.…”
