“…Delayed gastric emptying has been documented in coeliac patients, 18 which some studies report to be associated with increased plasma concentrations of neurotensin, a hormone which inhibits upper gastrointestinal motility 19,20 . Possible gluten sensitive enteropathy has been described in two horses but neither of these presented with gastric impaction 21,22 . To our knowledge, little is known about gastric motility and chronic gastritis in horses, further studies are required to better understand the pathogenesis of gastric impactions.…”

While Brunner's gland hyperplasia may rarely be considered as a cause of chronic gastric impaction in horses, it should be included in the differential diagnoses. A 7‐year‐old Cob cross‐breed gelding was presented with weight loss over a 3‐week period, and a diagnosis of chronic gastric impaction was made. Initial medical management was successful; however, the impaction recurred a further three times, at progressively shorter intervals, over the following 3 months. The owners subsequently elected euthanasia, and the horse was submitted for post‐mortem examination. A focal nodule within the cranial part of the duodenum was seen during the post‐mortem exam. Histopathologic evaluation of the duodenum revealed a marked increase in Brunner's glands admixed with distinct lobules of exocrine pancreatic tissue.

“…People with coeliac disease have also been reported to have increased gastric permeability, and it has been suggested that this may be due to the presence of a concurrent lymphocytic gastritis. Gluten sensitive enteropathy has been described in horses, and an association between gluten sensitivity and EGGD has been suggested (van Proosdij and others 2020).…”

Background: Equine glandular gastric disease (EGGD) is an erosive disease of the glandular mucosa of the stomach, which is increasingly recognised as a potential cause of poor performance, girthing pain and behavioural changes in sport horses. Unfortunately, the cause of EGGD has not yet been identified, and thus targeted treatment is not possible. Therefore, current recommendations for treatment and prevention are based on acid suppression and management strategies aimed at mitigating known risk factors.Aim of the article: This article summarises what we currently know about EGGD and outlines how we can use this information to manage the disease more effectively.
