Use of computed tomography angiography for the evaluation of a cutaneous haemangioma in a Standardbred horse

Abstract: Cutaneous haeangiomas are benign vascular neoplasms that arise from endothelial cells of blood vessels. Haemangiomas account for 0.6%-4% of all equine cutaneous neoplasms and the fetlock is the most commonly affected site. We describe the use of computed tomography angiography (CTA) for the evaluation of a cutaneous haemangioma located on the plantarolateral aspect of the left hindlimb fetlock of a 9month-old Standardbred colt. Computed tomography angiography of the affected fetlock was performed under general… Show more

“…To provide therapeutic options and prognosis for a case where a mass is present, it is essential that the nature of the mass is accurately diagnosed. Vascular neoplasms are rare in the horse and the literature regarding classification of equine vascular neoplasms lacks clarity 3,6–12 . Biopsy is the minimum standard for investigation of a vascular mass, as fine needle aspiration almost always results in nondiagnostic cytology due to poor exfoliation of mesenchymal cells and blood contamination 17 …”

“…Vascular neoplasms are rare in the horse and the literature regarding classification of equine vascular neoplasms lacks clarity. 3,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Biopsy is the minimum standard for investigation of a vascular mass, as fine needle aspiration almost always results in nondiagnostic cytology due to poor exfoliation of mesenchymal cells and blood contamination. 17 Whilst many tumour types can be differentiated with standard histology, those that are poorly differentiated or closely resemble others histologically require IHC for accurate diagnosis.…”
