Abstract

Papillary cystadenocarcinoma is an uncommon ovarian neoplasm of domestic animals, with the possible exception of the bitch. In the horse ovary, it is rare as compared with benign epithelial tumors. This case reports the gross and histopathological finding of cystadenocarcinoma in a 10-year-old, clinically healthy Thoroughbred mare. (omitted)
