Abstract

This paper reports one case of a horse with acute colic syndrome that was referred to the Teaching Hospital Complutense of Madrid.Based on the history, clinical signs and complementary diagnostic tests, a colon displacement was diagnosed. In the exploratory celiotomy, a right dorsal displacement of the large colon and generalized enteritis were found. During the surgery, adhesions all along the small intestine and multiple diverticula of different size in the mesenteric border in portions of the jejunum were also found. Due to these findings and the poor condition of the patient, euthanasia was performed on human grounds. This case report concludes that attending veterinarian should include this uncommon pathology in their differential diagnosis when chronic signs of colic, weight loss or diarrheas are a feature.
