Catastrophic gastric rupture in a horse secondary to psyllium pharmacobezoars.

Thomas C Bergstrom1, R Russell Sakai1, Jorge E Nieto1.   

Abstract

A mare was euthanized because of gastric rupture secondary to complete duodenal obstruction by 2 bezoars located in the pylorus and proximal duodenum. Infrared spectroscopy showed that the bezoars were composed of psyllium. The mare had been receiving treatment with a pelleted psyllium product at 4 times the recommended dosage. Veterinarians should be aware that treatment of colic in horses with pelleted psyllium products could be associated with gastric impaction.
