Paraneoplastic eosinophilia is reported in dogs, cats, and humans. Hypereosinophilia (an eosinophil count greater than 1.5 x 10(9) L) is often associated with metastasis and a poor prognosis. This report describes a case of paraneoplastic hypereosinophilia in a pony. Neoplasia should be included in the differential diagnoses in a horse with eosinophilia.
犬、猫和人类中均有副肿瘤性嗜酸性粒细胞增多症的报道。嗜酸性粒细胞增多(嗜酸性粒细胞计数大于1.5×10⁹/L)常与转移及预后不良相关。本报告描述了一匹小马发生副肿瘤性嗜酸性粒细胞增多症的病例。对于嗜酸性粒细胞增多的马匹,鉴别诊断应包括肿瘤。
