Mystery disease in horses confounds vets at Texas A&M
A mysterious equine ailment called nasopharyngeal cicatrix is emerging in Central and Southeast Texas, often found incidentally. Despite extensive research led by Dr. Tracy Norman, the cause remains unknown, with environmental factors and pasture exposure suspected. Treatments have failed to prove effective, leaving permanent tracheostomy as the only option for severe cases. Owners are advised regular veterinary checks and emergency planning while researchers seek answers.
