[en] Equine chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), also known as <<heaves>>, is a respiratory syndrome associated with stabling or exposure to hay or conditions in which molds or dust prevail. This paper reviews the different aspects of the equine COPD. Etiology, potential evolutions, treatment and prevention of this disease are evolved. [fr] La maladie pulmonaire obstructive chronique, communément appelée «pousse», est un syndrome respiratoire rencontré dans l'espèce équine et associé à l'exposition de poussières, plus particulièrement celles du foin. Ce travail de synthèse expose les connaissances actuelles relatives à cette pathologie : son étiologie, les méthodes de diagnostic, les différentes formes que peut prendre son évolution ainsi que ses conséquences sur les capacités sportives du cheval. Enfin, l'accent est également porté sur l'importance de la prévention et les différents moyens thérapeutiques de cette pathologie
