Recently, has been accepted for publication our case report entitled: Pheochromocytoma in a donkey. Report of case.  

Only a few cases of pheochromocytoma have been reported in horses, but it has been well described in dogs, cattle, and humans the adrenal medulla, which are postganglionic neurons of the autonomic nervous system. The diagnosis of this type of neoplasms can be confusing clinically, since the paraneoplastic signs can be multiple, in many cases it can be diagnosed by incidental necropsy. Given the low incidence of this type of tumors, it is important to describe the case to be considered within the differential diagnoses in equid adults with recurrent colic and progressive wasting.
