Plain-English summary
This study looked at four horses, each diagnosed with different types of lymphoma, which is a cancer of the lymphatic system. One horse had a specific type of T-cell lymphoma affecting the intestines, another had a large B-cell lymphoma in the spleen, a third had a peripheral T-cell lymphoma, and the last had a large B-cell lymphoma in the third eyelid. The researchers examined the horses' clinical signs, tissue samples, and immune cell characteristics to better understand these conditions. Unfortunately, the abstract does not provide details about the treatments or outcomes for these horses.
