Article Abstract
An 11-year-old Andalusian stallion developed marked signs of colic associated with an acute small intestine obstruction. Exploratory laparotomy revealed a distal jejunum full-thickness wall induration and multiple small adherent intraluminal masses. Fifteen centimeters of jejunum, including the induration, and several intraluminal masses were resected. Histologic examination revealed an adenocarcinoma and multiple polypoid adenomas. The horse was discharged, and no complications were reported 12 months postoperatively. Colic was considered secondary to partial jejunal lumen obstruction by the adenocarcinoma. Adenocarcinoma recurrence or transformation from remaining adenomas into an adenocarcinoma is still a major risk.

Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is a rare and severe intestinal motility disorder with poor long-term prognosis and high mortality rate, especially when the small intestine is involved. Due to the non-specificity of clinical symptoms, CIPO has long faced diagnostic challenges. With the advancements of sequencing technology, many hereditary CIPOs have been identified.

Dumping syndrome (DS) is a known complication following bariatric surgery, caused by rapid gastric emptying into the small intestine. It presents in two forms: early dumping, with gastrointestinal and vasomotor symptoms occurring within 30-60 min after meals; and late dumping, which arises 1-3 h postprandially due to reactive hypoglycaemia. Standard management includes dietary changes and medications, but tolerability and long-term efficacy are variable.
