Pathology
Tumours of the Thymus
- Benign
- - Thymoma (localised)
- - predominantly epithelial
- - predominantly lymphocytic
- Malignant
- - Thymic lymphosarcoma
- - poorly encapsulated
- - atrial and heart base infiltration
- - infiltration beneath sternal pleura
- - involvement of lung unusual
Rhodococcus equi
- pathogen of the equine lung (and intestine)
- cutaneous abscesses, cellulitis in young horses
- CELLULITIS = deep suppurative infection often dissecting through tissue planes
