Primary haemangiosarcoma in the proximal humerus of a Clydesdale gelding

Abstract: Summary An 11‐year‐old Clydesdale gelding was presented for investigation of left forelimb lameness of 2 weeks' duration. The use of scintigraphic imaging helped to localise the source of lameness to the left proximal humerus. In this report, the clinical and diagnostic imaging features of a primary osseous haemangiosarcoma in a horse are described, along with the challenges of establishing a definitive diagnosis ante mortem. In addition, neoplasia of the appendicular skeleton should be considered a differenti… Show more

“…Alternatively, a scintigraphic examination could be performed without the risk of general anaesthesia in a horse with a suspected femur or pelvis fracture (Pilsworth 2011) and is likely to have yielded increased radiopharmaceutical uptake, which has been described in haemangiosarcoma of the humerus of a Clydesdale gelding (Cottle et al . 2008).…”
