Five horses that underwent prolonged anesthesia (greater than 3 hours) in dorsal recumbency for a surgical procedure were unable to stand after recovery and were euthanatized. A provisional diagnosis of postanesthetic myopathy was confirmed at necropsy in all 5 horses. However, distribution of affected muscles in these horses was atypical, because there was bilateral hind limb adductor muscle involvement.
五匹马因外科手术而在仰卧位接受了长时间麻醉（超过3小时），恢复后无法站立，最终实施了安乐死。尸检证实所有5匹马均患有麻醉后肌病。然而，这些马匹受影响肌肉的分布并不典型，因为双侧后肢内收肌均有受累。
