Cementomas and osteolipomas are both benign, slow-growing tumour types, but are only sparsely described in horses. The aim of this case report was to describe the diagnostic work-up, surgical management and outcome of a horse with a rare collision tumour consisting of a cementoma and an osteolipoma associated with maxillary cheek tooth 106. A 14-year-old Warmblood mare was evaluated for right-sided nasal discharge, stridor and maxillary swelling. Diagnostic investigations included clinical examination, oral examination, standing CT and histopathology. The mass was removed under standing sedation via a combined rhinotomy and oral approach, including extraction of tooth 106. Postoperative complications, including an oronasal fistula, were treated using a combination of a modified levator labii superioris muscle transposition technique. Clinical until 12 months and CT follow-up at 6 months were performed. CT revealed a large expansile mass involving tooth 106 with mixed mineralised and soft-tissue components. Histopathology identified two distinct tumour types: a dorsally located osteolipoma and a ventral cementoma connected to the tooth root, consistent with a collision tumour. Surgical excision was successful, with no evidence of tumour recurrence at 6- and 12-month follow-up. An oronasal fistula developed postoperatively but resolved after staged surgical management. Limitations were that this is a single case report and long-term (&gt;1 year) recurrence risk remains unknown. Collision osteolipoma–cementoma tumours, although extremely rare, should be considered in horses with mixed-attenuation sinonasal masses. CT and histopathology are essential for accurate diagnosis. Complete surgical excision is feasible, but postoperative fistula formation is a significant risk for odontogenic tumours requiring tailored management.</p>","PeriodicalId":11786,"journal":{"name":"Equine Veterinary Education","volume":"38 10","pages":"e706-e713"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/eve.70146","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148871893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Wound healing in horses: What went wrong? 马的伤口愈合:哪里出了问题?

Ribeiro","doi":"10.1111/eve.70089","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/eve.70089","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;Managing skin wounds is a very common task for equine practitioners, but it remains a challenging topic because there is no well-defined therapeutic protocol that guarantees successful healing for all wounds. Each wound is unique, and we cannot always predict how the treatment will progress, which can lead to frustration for the horse owner regarding the time and cost spent until the wound is fully healed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the case series associated with this clinical commentary, the authors describe the use of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in combination with punch grafting for treating distal limb wounds in three horses (Schnierer et al., &lt;span&gt;2026&lt;/span&gt;). The authors report success with the therapy, but this is not the only information we can glean from this report. Before discussing the therapy, I invite readers to take a closer look at other important points presented in the reports, such as the characteristics of the wounds and the treatments performed prior to the grafts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The purpose of analysing these points is to contextualize the moment of decision-making regarding the described treatment and to highlight the fact that we are often forced to change the initially adopted therapeutic plan because the healing process did not progress as expected.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whenever possible, primary wound closure is preferable because second-intention wound healing in horses can become prolonged and accompanied by complications, such as exuberant granulation tissue, and consequent delay in epithelialisation and contraction (Theoret et al., &lt;span&gt;2001&lt;/span&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, we are often unable to achieve primary wound closure for various reasons, such as undue time elapsed since injury, excessive contamination or significant tissue loss (Theoret &amp; Wilmink, &lt;span&gt;2013&lt;/span&gt;), or we may even be able to perform the suture, but we are unsuccessful in this initial approach. In the case series presented, some wounds were primarily closed; others were not due to significant tissue loss, and one wound was closed but subsequently dehisced.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When the second-intention healing is the only option, we must decide how the wound will be managed, what products will be used for antisepsis, whether the wound lavage will be with water or saline solution, whether any topical product will be used, whether the wound will remain open or bandaged, whether the removal of excessive granulation tissue will be chemical or surgical, whether we will use any cell therapy, or any gas, or any physiotherapy. In short, each veterinarian will make their decision according to their own experience and what they consider best practice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The fact is that several protocols have already been described for the treatment of equine skin wounds by second-intention healing, but recent reviews of the literature concluded that, to date, there is no solid evidence on best practices and many results are controversial (Anantama et al., &lt;span&gt;2022&lt;/span&gt;; Freeman et al., &lt;span&gt;2021&lt;/spa","PeriodicalId":11786,"journal":{"name":"Equine Veterinary Education","volume":"38 10","pages":"520-522"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/eve.70089","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148872016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For all surgery types, the mean percentage of the waste that was offensive reduced from period 1 to period 2, followed by a further reduction in period 3. In all surgery types, the mean percentage of domestic waste was higher in period 3 than in period 1. The mean percentage of recyclable waste was lower during period 3 than during period 2.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Main limitations</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Low numbers of surgeries.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Education and training of surgical teams on appropriate waste segregation and introduction of reusable surgical textiles resulted in reduced total waste and offensive waste, and increased domestic waste generated in equine surgery. These changes have reduced the carbon footprint of equine surgery in this theatre, consistent with published life cycle analyses demonstrating that appropriate segregation of waste into lower-carbon disposal streams, and the adoption of reusable surgical textiles, substantially reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of surgical waste management.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":11786,"journal":{"name":"Equine Veterinary Education","volume":"38 10","pages":"e744-e751"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148871883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
