Transmural rectal intestinal evisceration associated with parturition in a primiparous mare

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

A 6-year-old, primiparous standardbred mare was presented with a history of intestinal protrusion from the rectum shortly after parturition. A subacute grade IV rectal tear was diagnosed. The unusual nature of the tear led to speculation of a possible owner palpation accident. A grave prognosis was given and the mare was euthanized.
