“…Differentials for haematuria in horses include urethral rents, bacterial cystitis, pyelonephritis, glomerulonephritis, urolithiasis, verminous nephritis, renal and vesicular neoplasia, vascular malformations, haemorrhagic diathesis, renal trauma, nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drug toxicosis and blister beetle (cantharidin) toxicosis (Schumacher et al . ; Schumacher ; Vits et al . ).…”

Summary A 17‐year‐old Egyptian Arabian stallion was presented for haematuria and blood clots in the urine of 4 days’ duration. During micturition, haematuria was noted mid‐stream with passage of blood clots occurring at the end of urination. Physical examination findings were unremarkable aside from pale mucous membranes. Cystoscopic examination revealed intermittent passage of frank blood (with clots) from the left ureteral orifice compared to grossly normal‐appearing urine issuing from the right ureteral orifice. Transcutaneous ultrasonographic evaluation of the right kidney yielded normal findings while the left kidney exhibited pyelectasia, a decreased cortico‐medullary ratio, and markedly increased echogenicity of the renal pelvis. Diagnosis of idiopathic renal haematuria was confirmed at necropsy.

“…If haemoglobinuria or myoglobinuria are present the supernatant will remain discoloured after centrifugation whereas it should be clear if red blood cells are present as these will be in the sediment (Schumacher et al, 2002). Equally if haemoglobinuria secondary to haemolysis is suspected, centrifugation of the blood will result in a pink discoloration of the plasma due to free haemoglobin.…”

“…Other causes of hematuria in donkeys include Halicephalobus gingivalis (formerly Micronema deletrix) infection [108,109] and idiopathic renal hematuria [110]. Halicephalobus gingivalis infection can be diagnosed by means of urinary analysis or renal ultrasound where an anechoic mass compatible with a parasitic granuloma can be occasionally observed.…”

a b s t r a c tCardiovascular diseases are scarcely reported in donkeys, probably linked to their limited athletic attitude and low frequency of poor performance-related examinations. Reports on treatments for cardiovascular pathologies are anecdotal in donkeys. Respiratory tract anatomy shows important differences between horses and donkeys. Donkeys and mules can act as reservoirs spreading many viral, bacterial, and parasitic infectious respiratory diseases. Mosquito and tick-borne encephalitis have been reported in these species in the later years, and even donkeys are being used as sentinels in some areas to detect these emerging diseases. Management and treatment of lithiases can be transferable from horses; however, the same assumption must still be demonstrated for acute and chronic renal diseases. Ocular pathologies are similar to horses, with corneal ulcers frequently observed. Lameness is a common problem in donkeys, with laminitis as the most reported cause followed by pedal abscess.
