| 英文描述 | Horses developed clinical and biochemical signs of chronic liver disease; there were high values of AST, ALP, GGT, SDH and bilirubin. As the disease advanced in some cases there was evidence of hepatoencephalopathy. Liver biopsy showed severe periportal fibrosis containing large amounts of hemosiderin in the hepatocytes and to a lesser extent in the macrophages. When measured in one horse, liver iron was high. Hemochromatosis is characterized by an accumulation of iron in the liver and other organs leading to cellular toxicity, and a diagnosis of hemochromatosis with hepatic fibrosis was made in these horses. |
