Description

Hemangiomas are benign tumors originating from the vascular endothelium, common in humans and dogs, but rarely in other animals. In horses, the neoplasms are usually detect on the skin around head and neck, but there is also evidence for affecting of limbs. The affected horses are usually young, suggesting a possible congenital origin of these tumors. The are no evidence for breed predisposition Histopathologically, hemangiomas are characterized by proliferating, vasoforming mesenchymal tissue forming capillary or cavernous vas-cular structures. Present clinical case describes the clinical, macroscopic and histopathologic features of con-genital hemangioma with unusual topographic location of the ovary at mare.
