Etiology and Pathogenesis of So-Called Mucoid Degeneration of The Nasal Conchae in the Horse

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica volume 9, pages 253–267 (1968)Cite this article

Summary

Following a description of the histopathology of so-called mucoid degeneration of the nasal conchae in the horse, the authors conclude that the morphologic nature of the disease is osteodystrophia fibrosa. The lesions are believed to be expressions of nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism.
