Abstract

A 4-year-old, American Paint horse gelding with recurrent episodes of exertional rhabdomyolysis was diagnosed with equine polysaccharide storage myopathy (EPSSM). The common clinical signs were muscle weakness, loss of muscle mass, exercise intolerance, difficulty holding up limbs for farrier, sensitivity of grooming, cramping with reluctance to move and the inability to rise. Through histological examination of skeletal muscle specimens, this case was confirmed of EPSSM.

노책성 횡문근융해증의 재발을 보이는 거세된 4세령 Paint horse가 다당류저장성근질환으로 진단되었다. 말이 폐사하기전 보인 임상증상으로는 근약화, 근손실, 운동불내성, 장제시 사지를 들어올리는데 어려움이 있었고, grooming 시 민감한 반응, 이동 혹은 기립시 장애였다. 골격근 샘플의 조직검사를 통해서 말의 다당류저장성근질환으로 확진되었다.
