Cerebral vascular mineralization was found in 12 (60%) of 20 3- to 10-year-old healthy horses collected at an abattoir. It was variable in degree and occurred mostly in the pallidal arteries showing two types of lesions; small globoid bodies along capillaries, and amorphous deposits in the wall of arterioles, small- or medium-sized arteries and veins. Both types were strongly positive for periodic acid-Schiff reaction, and weakly positive for von Kossa's and Berlin blue stains. Elemental analysis of the deposit revealed the presence of large amounts of aluminum, moderate amounts of phosphorus, zinc, calcium and iron, and a small amount of sodium.
在一家屠宰场收集的20匹3至10岁健康马匹中，有12匹（60%）发现了脑血管矿化。其程度各异，主要发生在苍白动脉，呈现出两种病变类型；沿毛细血管有小的球状物体，在小动脉、中小动脉和静脉壁有非晶质沉积物。两种类型对过碘酸-希夫反应均呈强阳性，对冯·科萨染色和柏林蓝染色呈弱阳性。对沉积物的元素分析显示存在大量铝、适量的磷、锌、钙和铁以及少量钠。
