Abstract
Colic is a frequent syndrome in horses, being basically a manifestation of the discomfort that can range from a dull ache to an excruciating pain that often ends with death. Causes can be multiple: digestive, neuronal, psychological, urinary, muscular, vascular and correlated with various pathological conditions and environmental factors, but premises of origin of true colic is stomach, small intestine or large intestine. Any disruption of their function, positional changes, twisting, swelling, infection or trauma will lead to the colic symptoms. There are many conditions that can trigger the colic syndrome, however, the widely recognized primary cause of the colic symptoms in horses is considered the stomach dilatation and / or of intestines, that will lead to obstruction of blood flow. In this sense, the review can be am useful remembrance, we believe, conceived in three chapters, for practitioners of the main elements related to inflammation and colic. Are presented: basic concepts related to anatomy and physiology of the horse digestive components, theoretical and practical recollections about the colic: general causes, syndrome types description: simple occlusion, intestinal wall stenosis, occlusion by strangulation, of bowel infarction, the sand colic, colic in foals, constipation with meconium, ulcers, bladder rupture, malformations etc, major symptoms and the clinical examination. Are also shown inflammation and colic medication and main treatment objectives, the anti-inflammatory list of the major useful groups: derivatives of acetic acid, propionic acid, aryl anthranilic acid (fenamates), anti inflammatory oxicam type, butyl-pirazolidinic, COXIBS. In the last part of paper are presented the own contributions in therapy of colics in horses through a comparative study between Vetalgin® vet and Cronyxin® vet.
