Claw trimming routines in relation to claw lesions, claw shape and lameness in Norwegian dairy herds housed in tie stalls and free stalls

Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2006
We assessed the prevalence of claw lesions, abnormal claw shapes and lameness in relation to most-recent claw-trimming routines in Norwegian dairy herds housed in tie stalls and free stalls. Equal-sized groups were randomly sampled from both tie and free stalls in each of the three most animal-dense regions in Norway.

MONTEGGIA LESION IN AN ASIAN SMALL-CLAWED OTTER (AONYX CINEREA)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2013
A 10-yr-old female Asian small-clawed otter (Aonyx cinerea) presented with a history of right forelimb lameness. Antebrachial radiographs revealed a Monteggia lesion, classified by cranial radial head luxation and distal diaphyseal ulnar fracture. Open reduction with placement of an ulnar-radial positional screw was performed.

Correlations of measurements of subclinical claw horn lesions in dairy cattle

Veterinary Record, 2001
Measurements were made of the extent of sole and white line lesions on the claws of 115 Holstein‐Friesian cows on at least three and at most 16 occasions, and some cows were followed up to their third lactation. All the measurements were made between 12 weeks before calving and 45 weeks after calving.

Effect of Forage Type on Claw Horn Lesion Development in Dairy Heifers

The Veterinary Journal, 2003
In a continuous design study the claw health of 54 Holstein-Friesian heifer calves was recorded from three months of age until six months after first calving (30 months of age). Pre-calving heifers were either fed a wet, fermented grass silage-based diet (WF) or a dry, unfermented straw and concentrate based diet (DU), apart from grazing during their ...

Control and prevention of lameness associated with claw lesions in dairy cows

Livestock Science, 2013
Dairy cow lameness is a serious animal welfare issue. It is also a significant cause of economic losses reducing reproductive efficiency and milk production and increasing culling rates. Despite its undeniable importance, lameness has not received the attention it deserves from the agricultural scientific community and its incidence appears to be on ...

Genetic and Metabolic Aspects of Claw Horn Lesion Aetiopathogenesis in Holstein Cows

2022
Sole haemorrhage (SH), sole ulcers (SU), and white line lesions (WL), collectively referred to as claw horn lesions (CHL), are important causes of lameness in dairy cattle. This thesis aimed to explore the aetiopathogenesis of CHL, with a focus on genetic and metabolic factors.

Potential biomarkers for lameness and claw lesions in dairy cows: A scoping review

Journal of Dairy Research
AbstractOne of the major challenges in lameness management is prompt detection, especially before visible gait disturbance. This scoping review describes the potential biomarkers for lameness in dairy cows reported in the literature, their relevance in lameness diagnosis, identifying cows at risk of developing claw lesions and monitoring recovery after

An update on the treatment of claw horn lesions in cattle

Cattle Practice, 2014
Lameness in dairy cattle remains at unacceptably high levels. The claw horn lesions (sole haemorrhage/ sole ulceration and white line disease) are two of the most important causes of lameness in the UK. Prompt identification and early and effective treatment to reduce the period over which animals are lame is one of the corner stones of reducing ...

Haemorrhagic claw lesions in newborn piglets due to selenium toxicosis during pregnancy.

The Veterinary record, 1990
In a sow herd piglets were born with haemorrhagic lesions on the proximal wall and sole of the claws of all their feet due to abnormal horn formation. High concentrations of selenium were detected in the liver and kidney of the piglets and appeared to be associated with these lesions.
