Tarsal fractures in a heifer and a bull
- 1. Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine, Blacksburg (United States)
Description
Tarsal fractures were diagnosed in a heifer and a bull. In both cases, radiography confirmed intra-articular fractures, with subluxation of the fracture fragment. Sudden, nonreducible hock flexion was a clinical sign in both cases. This sign may be highly suggestive of intra-articular fracture when diagnosis must be made without radiography
