In a retrospective study of 16 horses in which renal papillary necrosis was found at PM examination, it was determined that almost all had been treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and had been dehydrated or their water intake had been compromised. It was concluded that these features may be key factors in the development of papillary necrosis.
