Comminuted fractures of the proximal phalanx in horses: A multicentre retrospective review
Summary Background Comminuted fractures of the proximal phalanx (CFPP), defined as the presence of three or more major fracture fragments, present difficult management challenges. Feedback from practitioners and long‐term follow‐up can be helpful to reassess evidence‐based treatment strategies and improve clinical outcomes.

SummaryThe distal interphalangeal joint was successfully arthrodesed in a 7-monthold horse using two 13-mm stainless steel baskets that were packed with autogenous cancellous bone and held in place with transarticular 4.5-mm cortical screws.

Transfixation cast technique for arthrodesis of the distal interphalangeal joint of horses
SummarySurgical arthrodesis of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint by transfixation casting was used to salvage a three-year-old filly and a yearling filly that were chronically lame because of infection of the DIP joint for breeding.

Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.

Microanatomical features of bovids long bones: What are the effects of mass and habitat?
This study provides the first qualitative and quantitative exploration of inter‐bones and interspecific variations in the microanatomy of long bones in bovids in response to significant changes in body mass and habitat. Abstract Bovids are a valuable group for studying limb long bone adaptations due to differences in size and the environment that the ...
