OF 207 horses with colic seen over a 36-month period, 10 were determined to have impaction colic caused by ingestion of synthetic fencing material. In 6 cases, there was history of exposure to rubberized fencing products. All horses affected were less than or equal to 3 years of age, had signs of mild to moderate abdominal pain, and were unresponsive to usual symptomatic therapy. At surgery, each horse was found to have an impaction involving the distal right dorsal colon, transverse colon, or small colon, and in some cases, all 3 bowel segments. In 9 cases, the involved segment of bowel could not be brought out of the abdominal cavity, and in each of these cases, the foreign bodies were removed through one or more enterotomies. Five of the 10 horses survived.
在36个月期间所见到的207匹患急腹症的马中，有10匹被确定为因摄入合成围栏材料而患阻塞性绞痛。6例有接触涂橡胶围栏产品的病史。所有受影响的马年龄小于或等于3岁，有轻至中度腹痛体征，且对常规对症治疗无反应。手术时，每匹马均发现阻塞累及右背侧结肠远端、横结肠或小结肠，在某些情况下，所有3个肠段均受累。9例中，受累肠段无法从腹腔取出，在每例中，通过一个或多个肠切开术取出异物。10匹马中有5匹存活。
