Moldy corn poisoning is a mycotoxicosis of Fusarium sp. causing a disease termed equine leukoencephalomalacia (ELEM). This article reviews the literature on ELEM and describes two cases with clinical signs and morphological findings comparable with fusariotoxicosis. Since in both cases neither a fungus nor a toxin proof were performed, the different causes of leukoencephalomalacia in horses are discussed.
霉变玉米中毒是由镰刀菌属引起的一种霉菌毒素中毒病,可导致一种名为马脑白质软化症(ELEM)的疾病。本文回顾了关于马脑白质软化症的文献,并描述了两例具有与镰刀菌毒素中毒相似临床症状和形态学表现的病例。由于在这两例病例中均未进行真菌或毒素检测,因此对马脑白质软化症的不同病因进行了讨论。
