Equine leukaemic lymphoma is a rare disease of the haematopoetic tissue. It results from neoplastic degradation of B- and T-lymphocytes and their occurrence in the blood. Clinical signs are often unspecific and include chronic weight loss, ventral oedema at the thorax and abdomen and regional lymphadenopathy. Horses are often presented late in the course of the disease and therapy is rarely successful. This review summarizes the clinical pathologic findings of equine leukaemic lymphoma and the findings of laboratory testing and other diagnostic measures, and presents treatment options described in the literature.
马白血病性淋巴瘤是一种造血组织的罕见疾病。它是由B淋巴细胞和T淋巴细胞的肿瘤性退变以及它们在血液中的出现所导致的。临床症状通常不具有特异性，包括慢性体重减轻、胸腹部腹侧水肿以及局部淋巴结病。马匹常在疾病病程后期就诊，治疗很少成功。本综述总结了马白血病性淋巴瘤的临床病理表现、实验室检测及其他诊断措施的结果，并介绍了文献中描述的治疗选择。
