Paraneoplastic manifestations of cancer in horses

Descrption/Abstract:
Paraneoplastic manifestations of cancer, probably
under-recognised in equine clinical practice, are often
observed before the underlying primary disease is
identified. This review provides a summary of
paraneoplastic phenomena that have been reported in
horses. The inclusion of paraneoplastic explanations in the
differential diagnosis of common and challenging clinical
problems should lead to earlier diagnosis and greater
chance for successful therapeutic outcomes. In some
cases, alterations in the clinical severity of paraneoplastic
signs can be used as indicators of disease progression or
response to treatment.
