Lipomas involving the musculoskeletal system were seen in 3 horses. The lipomas were on the thorax of 2 horses and the stifle of the third horse. The thoracic lipomas were surgically removed. No recurrence has been noted by 8 months in either case. The lipoma on the stifle had invaded the surrounding tissue and the horse was euthanatized. Unlike mesenteric lipomas, which occur in older horses, these lipomas all occurred in horses less than 2 years of age.
3匹马出现了累及肌肉骨骼系统的脂肪瘤。其中2匹马的脂肪瘤位于胸部，第三匹马的脂肪瘤位于膝关节。胸部的脂肪瘤通过手术切除。两例在8个月内均未发现复发。膝关节处的脂肪瘤已侵犯周围组织，该匹马实施了安乐死。与发生于老龄马的肠系膜脂肪瘤不同，这些脂肪瘤均发生于2岁以下的马匹。
