A 4-year-old Thoroughbred gelding with a history of chronic colic was referred for evaluation of signs of abdominal pain. Exploratory laparotomy revealed a diverticulum of the distal portion of the ileum located between the layers of the mesentery. The diverticulum was similar in location and appearance to acquired ileal diverticula described in human beings. Complete bypass of the diverticulum by ileocecostomy resulted in apparent resolution of the chronic colic in this horse.
一匹4岁的纯种马公马，有慢性腹痛病史，因腹痛症状前来接受评估。剖腹探查术发现回肠远端憩室位于肠系膜两层之间。该憩室的位置和外观与人类描述的后天性回肠憩室相似。通过回肠盲肠吻合术完全绕过憩室后，这匹马的慢性腹痛症状明显缓解。
