Six ponies and 1 horse were bilaterally adrenalectomized (BADX). The survival time of 2 of the 7 animals after BADX was 24 and 72 hours without supplemental corticosteroids. The cause of death was not related to the surgical technique. The biological half-life of cortisol (hydrocortisone) was estimated to be 2.1 +/- 0.6 hours. The disappearance of cortisol in the horse was found to be biphasic, composed of redistribution and elimination phases. Pathophysiologic changes (ie, increased serum sodium and chloride, increased PCV, and decreased serum potassium) similar to those seen in other species after BADX were found. Clearance of electrolytes was calculated, using the creatinine clearance method. These values were inversely correlated with the changes seen in serum electrolytes.
