| 中文描述 | 腎上腺皮質癌少見於馬。與馬匹腦下垂體腺瘤比較,並沒有與腎上腺皮質腫瘤有關的多毛病報告(van der Kolk et al.)。可能會因血糖過低引起癲癇和因後大靜脈壓迫引起的後之水腫。可能會有低尿比重,雖然引起這種狀況的機制還不清楚。由手術或驗屍診斷。 |
| 英文描述 | Adrenocortical carcinomas are rare in horses. In contrast to equine pituitary adenomas, there do not appear to be reports of hirsutism associated with adrenocortical neoplasia (van der Kolk et al.). There can be associated seizures due to hypoglycemia and hindlimb edema due to compression of the caudal vena cava. There might also be low urine specific gravity, although the mechanism causing this is unclear. Dx at surgery or necropsy. |
