The mare had delivered a healthy filly 45 days previously with no apparent difficulty. Ultrasonographic examination of the mare’s uterus at her foal heat revealed excessive fluid retention. The uterus was infused with 500 mg of gentocin in 500 ml of saline, and intramuscular lutylase was administered to shorten the mare’s estrous cycle. Twentyfive days after foaling, the mare was reevaluated via transrectal ultrasonography, and intrauterine fluid and an 8-cm, fluid-filled mass were detected (Figure 1). The mass was located on the cranial aspect of the left uterine horn. The mare was then referred for further evaluation. At the University of Minnesota Veterinary Teaching Hospital, transrectal palpation revealed a mass involving the left uterine horn. Ultrasonographic examination of the uterus revealed a small amount of intrauterine fluid and an approximately 8-cm, anechoic, fluid-filled structure near the tip of the left uterine horn. The exterior uterine margin of the cyst was 7 mm thick. Subsequent hysteroscopy revealed a thin-walled, fluid-filled structure that projected into the uterine lumen and moved with the intestinal motility.

Equine hepacivirus (EqHV), equine pegivirus (EPgV) and Theiler's disease-associated virus (TDAV) are three novel equine viruses in the family Flaviviridae. EqHV and EPgV have been identified to circulate in the equine population worldwide, whereas TDAV has not been detected in equines since the first reported case. To date, no studies have focused on investigating EqHV, EPgV and TDAV in commerc...

In this study, Equus caballus major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) was identified as a cellular entry receptor for the alphaherpesvirus equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1). This novel EHV-1 receptor was discovered using a cDNA library from equine macrophages. cDNAs from this EHV-1-susceptible cell type were inserted into EHV-1-resistant B78H1 murine melanoma cells, these cells were in...
