Fifty-four slaughtered horses were classified into groups having adipose tissue in the crest of the neck with or without hemorrhage (AH and NH groups, respectively). Blood biochemical tests (Alb, TP, T-bil, GOT, GPT, LDH, T-cho, and BUN) and an epidemiological survey (age, gender, weight, origin, breed, BCS, CNS, and hoof disease) were performed. T-bil tended to be high, while the other parameters were normal. Weight, BCS, and CNS were higher in the AH group (P<0.05). GOT was lower in the AH group (P<0.05). It was suspected that the horses in the AH group had lipomatosis. It was assumed that the adipose tissue of the horses in the AH group contained damaged capillaries, and inflammation was confirmed based on evidence of macrophages and lymphocytes.
54匹屠宰马被分为颈部嵴部有脂肪组织伴或不伴出血的组（分别为AH组和NH组）。进行了血液生化检测（白蛋白、总蛋白、总胆红素、谷草转氨酶、谷丙转氨酶、乳酸脱氢酶、总胆固醇和尿素氮）和流行病学调查（年龄、性别、体重、产地、品种、体况评分、颈部嵴部状况和蹄部疾病）。总胆红素趋于升高，而其他参数正常。AH组的体重、体况评分和颈部嵴部状况较高（P<0.05）。AH组的谷草转氨酶较低（P<0.05）。怀疑AH组的马患有脂肪瘤病。推测AH组马的脂肪组织中毛细血管受损，并根据巨噬细胞和淋巴细胞的证据证实存在炎症。
